snow tail

They're all fun to look at,and I suspect that many would generate some interesting drag coefficients.
Ice has been used in a wind tunnel in an attempt to let the moving air sculpt it into a low drag form,but there were erosion problems.
If you tried to use snow in a tunnel,the leading edges of the drive fan would have to be remote,and protected from anything but air touching them.
