Very good explanation Mike.

Here it is a kind of pic that I love to see, the vortex condensation effect of LEX on a high g pull over the wings on a F-16 , same pattern happens on Rafales,Eurofighters, and even the Concorde, that uses a double delta wing planform to achieve the same results.

Regards, Enrique
