Heard from several folks that the cabin is very warm in the IVP because of high input temp from the turbos anytime the aircraft is in the air, and very limited cockpit airflow on the ground. Then talked to Gary Lorentzen at Lancair, and he indicated the IVP was no different than any other light plane--hot on the ground in summer/direct sun, but quite comfortable as soon as airborne. Other opinions/observations?? Info/sources of A/C systems for an IVP?? Bob Pastusek (The only AC unit I know of for the L-IV / IV-P comes from a company called Airflow Systems (ph 760-632-7010 fax 760-632-7015), is a complete kit, and as of Oshkosh '98 cost around $7400. Naturally there may be others out there but I am unaware of them. )
