I did find this example today, it uses the air slots similar to my roof wing design. I guess I'm not so crazy after all.

Just thought I would add an image to this topic, a parachute door opening?

’The BT-67’2
The BT-67 is a refurbished, modernized, and improved version of the Douglas DC-3 which first entered service with the American armed forces way back in 1936. What Basler does is to first get an old DC-3 aircraft, inspect and then do a complete overhaul on it. They then reinforce the airframe, wings and control surfaces to allow the aircraft to handle an increased maximum takeoff weight.
