Bob, regarding the amount of heat. .... I've spoken with a couple of
builder/fliers that have told me that there is MORE than a sufficient
amount of heat supplied into the cabin. One builder went far as to put a
reducer in the baffle opening that supplies air to his heat exchangers.
This would be a good topic to hear from some other fliers as to their
experience.

And a good quibble it is...I know that, but my point was that going from one
2" line to a single 1" line may not provide enough heat...I was just trying
to "fit between" the pieces I have and that's why I proposed the idea. I
haven't started doing anything on it, still scratching my head...
Thanks for the clarity and observation!

Interestingly enough, it may actually, by decreasing the flow, increase the
temp of the air that's actually coming out back there. I'm just surmising
here, but if you restrict the velocity going from 2" to 1", the air may have
more time to be heated by the pipes...you'll have to let me know. When's
that bird gonna fly?

My experience with slightly over 65 hours is that there is way more
heat than necessary except in the most extreme conditions. I am
careful about having items on the back seat floor near the heat vents
when I am using heat. I also noticed that my panel was pretty warm
and my defrost fans were putting out pretty warm air while flying
phase 1 during some pretty cold weather in Minnesota back in
December. This was due to lots of heat coming out of the front seat
vents.
