Hello Kolb flyers,
Having spent quite a few months crammed in the back seat of a supercub, flying winter wildlife surveys, I have an appreciation for a little cabin heat! We always dressed for the weather, but the lack of blood circulation made it hard to stay warm in sub zero weather. I intend to copy Larry’s pervious cabin heat design, and will plumb it to blow in to the nose cone, and back up the windshield. Are Kolb’s drafty enough that frost build up on the inside of windshield is not a concern?
Thanks for your incites!

I never noticed a problem with fogging, but I had a 12 V little hand held blower just in case. I never had to use it in Oregon weather, I couldn't say about Palmer Ak.Larry

Never had problems with frost on the window. I tired to make the plane air resistant, but did not worry about air tight. On Jan 4, 2014 1:25 PM, "Nick Cassara" <nickc(at)mtaonline.net (nickc(at)mtaonline.net)> wrote:[quote]
