The only set I use a fan on the chassis with is my '48 Halicrafters 505. The set is known to go dark when the flyback heats-up, so in that case it really helped with one mounted right over the open HV box. I have also attempted to run a small fan in the back of other vintage TV sets when I use them, but if you're only going to use the set sparingly, I, and other repairman I've spoken to, do not think it's really necessary. As said previously, the noise, even with a smaller computer fan, can be rather annoying.
