Ahem! That ain't no VG, my friend. That is an inverted airfoil with
an air
dam on each end.
If I thought I could get better slow speed flight and eliminate that
dreaded
"5th wheel drop", I'd have those little suckers stuck all over it.
That old Taylor Wing is worth a 10% decrease in fuel burn. I'm over
6,000
miles into this trip. That figures out to a little over 600 miles
free
pulling. ;-)
Take care,
