We currently have the MK flyscreen on ours and I have to say the wind does get a bit much at times (particularly in your right ear and eyes - even with sunglasses on). Would a proper aero screen reduce this at all? Or is it full screen time - I wondered if even this would help as it seems like a lot of the wind comes in from the side.

I also find with a helmet on your neck gets gradually fatigued by the constant buffeting and sometimes it even feels like the wind is trying to lift the helmet off.

Hi

I have the aeroscreen from Mac#1 and I find that it keeps the wind off me very well, with no wind hitting the right side of my face. In all I am very happy with it.

A full screen does induce some funky vortices that whip round the side of the screen and get you from the sides.... It's certainly not as full-on-in-the-face as without but it's certainly not smooth!!

Is that on an indy?

The only way to get toasty with little wind in the cockpit is to get a full windscreen with side doors. Which are both available but not cheap.

As above

Side screens/doors make an amazing difference.
