'Speed Pants'...
"karel" wrote Sounds reasonable, yes, but they DO look cool! Wouldn't want the complication of an extra (belden?) cable, though. If some clever one could find a way to maken them open automagically, now that would be great! How about using ram pressure to keep them closed, via a pneumatic cylinder, then when ram pressure is less, like slowing for landings, they open up, probably spring assisted. -- Jim in NC
