'swallows'

In order to reduce drag, it would have to be 'airtight' ( like the Airflow ), and it's cross-sectional area would have to diminish very gradually over it's length, in order not to produce an 'over-allowable' pressure increase. Other wise, the flow would separate, and it's game over.
Only non-ventilated cavities are capable of producing drag reduction.
