Quick Question. If the front and the back of the pipe are "basically" sealed, how does the air from the NACA inlets flow?
Would a front inlet and rear exaust be more effective?

The air enters the inlets and is drawn between the inner and outer pipes. There are also holes in the former around the bell-mouth. But, the last two sections of the plane are sealed and I always think that this area could use some ventilation.
Here's a pic of my inlets:


there is also enough flow between the front retract and fuselage forcing the air outwards
