Default RE: BVM LE flap.

Hi,

I keep hearing about how the F-16 inlet is too small, turbulated, angled, etc., for the Dynamax fan to perform well in it, but it seems to me that someone needs to let the airplane know because in its ignorance of these facts, it seems to haul butt. Of course, a smooth inlet (free of hard transitions and such) is going to be better, but I don't see a performance deficit out n the field...
