Some people will tell you airtabs are a waste of time. I don't know about that, I haven't read up on them at all, but I would say remember what the Dryden and many other tests have shown. The biggest gains are to be had at the rear of the vehicle and in this case in the rear of the a/c fairing as well most likely.

I think you'll have more success building fairings and boat tails than you will sticking airtabs on things but what the heck, go where the spirit moves you. A lot of people never get past the I'm gonna do this and I'm gonna do that stage.
