Sorry guys. I was gone two days and came back to a mess at the plant.
I've been too busy to give this the attention I planned.

No time for research

Given the latitude and forgiveness of this bunch when it comes to facts of importance and spelin' I don't want to guess or shoot from the hip.

Although I will say Tom 2112 nailed it on laminar. The only thing I could add is that that the cars, on his laminar chart, do not all have to travel the same speed but may have progressively different speeds going from one side of the road to the other.

And maybe Woody was, but I know I did, look at the honeycomb for reducing turbulence in the CAI. No significant change in performance.
