That is the concept in a nutshell.

You would think that because they paid big bucks to buy time at the Langley wind-tunnel they would at least share some stills of the smoke.

Maybe these vortexes are too violent to photograph well, seems like a lost investment with diminished public relations value.

I really like their wheel covers.

The rear undercarriage treatment I have not seen before, very odd.
