RE: FLASH Air Intakes
Thanks for the suggestion! I did a similar thing on the Flash but the screen is further up inside the intake duct! There is not a good way to put screens right at the intakes without affecting the air flow with whatever framework I put in to hold the screen. The intake duct is a single piece of fiberglass not just an opening in the frame!! The suction at the intakes is pretty substantial! You can hear it even at idle!! If I taxi slowly in the grass it isn't a problem. I was just worried that on takeoff it might get enough to cause the turbine to overheat and shutdown. Bad day!!! I can keep vacuuming it out every flight! Thanks again!
