I reviewed this news group, Buttler/Nixon/Murray vent and DG's page on Mandl air extractor. Could not find a suitable reference for and extractor for a sustainer or motor glider. I did note that the open tails of DG and LS gliders apparently did not do a good job of extracting air, hence the Mandl, which according to comments on this news group does not good avery effective job either. Anyone come up with a good method of extracting air from a glider with a fuel tank in the baggage compartment? What type of glider are you referring to? John Murray and I have looked at the feasibility on many gliders. Among those that have had variants of the ES vent are ASW-24,27,28,27-18, Discus B, Ventus B,Ventus 2B, LS-6, LS-8, DG400, Lak-17,Lak 17T, and Std Cirrus. ASG-29E is on the horizon for this Fall. Others are obviously possible, provided there is enough potential to justify the one time costs for a particular installation. UH |

UH How will the extractor for the 29E be made, also behind the head of the pilot?Will the solution be certified as a TN, like the air extractor for the 29? Thanks, |
