Hi, Paul....in the not too distant past, we had been discussing the best
placement of inlet/cooling scoops for the canards.  I came upon this

posting

on the canard aviators site.  Interesting?  Take care.  Paul Conner

Take a close look at this and you'll know where to put your inlets".

The trouble with this is whoever wrote it got it wrong.
Blue is high pressure and red is low pressure!

I agree, of course. On the SQ2000 that I have, the factory cooling scoops
are located right in the middle of that dark blue area above the wing, on
the first picture, where the cowling starts, to the rear of the canopy. If
this is accurate, it would appear that my inlet scoops were fairly well
placed for pressure?  Thanks, Paul .   Paul Conner

Here are a few more pressure plots.
