Lucky -------------- Original message -------------- -- RV8-List message posted by: "Greg V. Miller" I put it just under the left side panel, mounted to the left gear box. Doesn't take up panel space and has a straight tube to the intake duct. On Tue, 2004-12-07 at 07:38 -0500, Stephen J. Soule wrote: -- RV8-List message posted by: "Stephen J.

I am thinking of putting it in the panel, all the way to the left, just above the manual trim knob. Will use Van's size large black plastic eyeball vent. Steve Soule Swanton, Vermont Where to put the front fresh air vent Hey RV-8 builders and fliers, Where are you putting or where did you put your front-seat fresh air vent? I am thinking of putting it in the panel, all the way to the left, just above the manual trim knob. Will use Van's size large black plastic eyeball vent.

Looks good so far, but the panel isn't in the airplane yet. I didn't want to put it on the cross brace or landing gear box because I thought it would hit it with my leg getting in and out of the cockpit.
