Hi Paul,
I realized that the profile you sent over was full scale.  The software requires that whatever you
choose to be the characteristic length for the Reynolds number be made 1.0 for the model.  Since I
chose the inlet to be the characteristic length I had to re-scale down by .25.  Therefore, I
believe the last run was probably ran approximating 1/4 of 150mph.  Here are the results for
150mph. They still look similar to me. Have I inundated you with CFD data yet?  ;-)

No way. I am learning a lot. Again this looks like pressure data.
Also looks like an S duct is unnecessary. Of course we have not
modeled the fuse ahead of the duct opening so an S duct may still
be necessary if a P51 duct is used on the aft end of a pusher
where the boundary layer is quite thick. Also looks like
that aft corner is critical.
