Not so good over the top, is it. But most air, as you said went around the side. Maybe that was much cleaner, given the shapes.

James,this is the animal alright! Thanks!
I'm seeing a little of Prandtl's 'line of discontinuity' right before the forward header,then the flow appears to hug the rooftop until it breaks away at the back.
Four streamline smoke filaments are dislocated into the crowded space above the roof,but I can't see any 'daylight' between the roof and smoke.I interpret that as 'good' flow,although I'm just an amateur.
Compared to some wind tunnel smoke photos I've seen I'd have to say that Rumpler new his way around pretty well.
