  • Probably, maybe, possibly, perhaps. All fun words. Having a hole in the wing is probably way worse than some windage. It cuts the balls out of the laminar flow and pressure differential. I’m no pilot, but as a sailor I can tell you that sails do not perform very well with holes in them.

    Why not make the little ramp at the front of the wing so the air flows over it like a ramp and then you can do away with the entire rest of the wing?
