1) No model smaller than 1/4-scale can produce reliable 'quantitative' data.
2) At velocities high enough for a 1:24- scale model to achieve critical Reynolds number, the model would be experiencing compressibility effects, a 'FAIL.'
3) In the past 99-years, no researcher has ever achieved a 'phantom' tail any larger than for 5% of total aft-body truncation, let alone, 100%.
