Al,

Question:  Do you have the flat windshield or the bubble windshield?

I think the flat windshield flings the air up more and the slipstream passes
several inches above where the sliding windows would be.  So, if you stick
your hand up (or head and headsets), you don't feel the wind for the first
few inches.

With the bubble windshield, it lets the slipstream conform to the bubble and
it's coming right over the sliding windows.  So, with windows open, if your
head comes up a trifle, you're in the high-speed slipstream.

Sorry, 10-gallon hats not allowed while flying your Coupe with either
windshield.
