The "simple" pressure on the lower side also obeys Bernoulli's law. The top surface is more important at subsonic than at supersonic speeds. Above about Mach 10 the top is pretty much irrelevant. -- Ken Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web site: http://www.mooremusic.org.uk/ I reject emails > 100k automatically: warn me beforehand if you want to send one _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
