So here's a question for those that truly understand, or believe to understand the low pressure effects of vortex generators.
There's nothing better than flying a cub with the door open, and while I enjoyed the wind in the back of a J-3, some of my passengers would prefer less wind/buffeting in the back of my -11.
Has anyone played around with vortex generators on the fuselage, in front of the door? Some theoretical thoughts would be they might create more "turbulence" in the cockpit, but the counter thought would be they might stop the back seat from being such a parachute due to the vortex?...
Thoughts?
