The Airflow Enhancement Kit improves the cabin airflow in General Aviation aircraft, specifically Cessnas. The objectives of the Airflow Enhancement Kit combined with Ventubes are to enhance the pilot and passengers comfort (cooling & heating), allow reliable closure of the inlet air vents, control cabin air direction, increase cabin air flow, and reduce inlet air noise and leakage. The kit consists of two cabin exit vents, CEV, to allow the cabin air to exit into the aft fuselage and the fuselage exit vent, FEV in the modified inspection plate, to allow the cabin air to exit the fuselage of the aircraft. |
Could not notice a difference in cabin air flow. The white plate is plastic. Unknown how it would hold up in the sun. The silver plates are very thin aluminum and are installed on the shelf in baggage area. However, it seems anything placed on them will probably bend them, further impeding airflow.

There are 3 vents total. The two aluminum vents are 4-1/2" in diameter and the PVC vent is 5" in diameter.
The unit does not have FAA approval paperwork. A field approval may be required for a certified aircraft.
