Suggests the undertray has increased pressure beneath the tail higher than it is on the lower left side, where the reverse was true without the tray.

I'll make a diagram or screen cap to show it best. Which is coming, eventually.
Man you do awesome work!!! I have learned a ton from all your posts.

Thanks so much
