    1. The Kutta condition is valid for steady flow only.
    2. There are no truly steady flows in the real world: you know, the one
    engineers live in.
    3. There are also no truly inviscid flows in the real world.
    4. Therefore, it's time to sling the guitar over the back, fol-de-rol, and start
    busking, Slavi :)

    They did a lot of low aspect ratio wind tunnel tests for DATCOM.
