| Subject: | Rear Cockpit Heat |
--> RV8-List message posted by: "Bert Penney" <van@entechnos.com>
Hi Stephen,
I guess my expectations are a little high. I was kinda hoping that I
could have an auto type environment where I could sit in my shirt
sleeves regardless of the outside temp. Oh, well. I have lots of time,
so I'll keep pondering the problem.

Bert,
I wear a snowmobile suit at temperatures below freezing in my RV-6A. I
bought a surplus USAF Nomex insulated flight suit that is also very
comfortable, but a little hard to get on and off. I wear insulated
boots,
too. Sorrel boots or Lacrosse work well. I look like I'm ready for ice
fishing when I'm suited up. I would like to be comfortable if I have to
land
in a field or on a frozen lake, so that is another reason to wear a moon
suit in the winter!
Sun coming into the bubble canopy keeps pilot and passenger warm from
the
waist up. I have a single heat muff that discharges on the passenger's
feet.

-----Original Message-----I just purchased an RV-8 empennage, so I am a
long
way from worrying
about heat, but since I live in Canada, one thing that has been a bit of
concern for me is operating an RV in the winter. It seems to me that,
with just a thin sheet of al between me and the outside, there is a
fairly high potential for very cold and uncomfortable flying. Has
anyone spent much time flying their RV in very cold (-20 to -40)
weather?

I found several errors in this spreadsheet that cause it to fail to
calculate at some rpm and manifold pressure conditions. There is also
a data error for 2000 rpm. I will post a corrected version on 4 Jan
2003 as soon as I do some more testing.
