John,

you wrote "Wing Aerodynamic" - wing aerodynamic and function is totally 
different to a body aerodynamic and function.

Best example - a belly tank - which was used under the wing to extend the 
distance - is a body aerodynamic....is this belly tank to the wing rule 
designed.....no.

Hope it's now clear what I  meant.

See ya
