Thank you everyone.
I'll have to read up on that D'Alembert paradox. Between that and freebeard's comments about how pressure would be more in the direction of air flow, I can see where my ideas were skewed.
This is one of the things I truly appreciate about this site. You folks are always willing to try and educate and share your knowledge, to help someone like me understand.
