    Subject: Re: RV-7 Defog fans
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Jim Jewell" <jjewell@telus.net> I installed two small (2-1/4") computer fans on the glare shield of my slider equipped 6a. I mounted the fans on approximately 3-1/2" x 3" rectangles of .032 aluminium sheet material. The squares have small tabs bent on the front edge that slip into and under the slightly smaller dimensioned glare shield fan openings. A 6-32 plate nut at the rear edge of the opening allows the fans to be held in place with one screw each. Remove screw, tilt up the fan and lift it out. A short wire with an insulated spade connection allows for disconnection. Some screen material over the fan opening makes them look good and should keep junk out of the fans. A small switch on the panel handles the small current required As described below no ducting etc. needed. This aircraft has yet to fly so actual defog performance is as yet an unknown. Pictures available on request. I think this would be somewhat harder to do with the tip up canopy.
