A couple of new thoughts that ocured to me on this topic . There are two
ways to get ram air pressure for the engine .
(1) Create pressure with the scoop . You need to size the inlet for
high gear but that hurts the lower gears .
(2) Go after the existing air pressure just in front of the nose of the
body . Because the inlet isn't creating the pressure the same size inlet is
right for all gears .
I like (2) . Does anybody else ?
