Eva Lewalski an aerodynamic engineer from Poland when visiting, I asked her
what's good or bad about my aerodynamics' she said she couldn't answer, but
she did say "In Poland they have good gliders, and if a person we're to touch
one and leave fingerprints they would run you off the airport"! So I always
polish my streamliner! Another incident, when I asked Ron Ayres (SSC) whether
I should tighten the space around my front wheels, he said, "I don't know!"
The absolute best answer possible! Jack
