4) Can you clarify your remark?
1) Yes I have Hoerner's book.

2) You didn't read the paper I cited? Adrian Gaylard suggested it to me as being highly relevant to cars.

3) That's right - you don't seem to understand the original post I made in this thread?

4) Which? Your comment that "The thickness of the TBL is essentially meaningless, as long as it is present." is not supported by the experts.
