Take a look at some of the papers on the site -

Since they aren't selling anything, and they are doing both real world
experiments and academic papers with plenty of data collection, I
wouldn't call them snake oil.

Snake oil is far too nice a term for what they're peddling. Did you
read the paper? In the first sentence they throw out a hundred years of
aerodynamics and replace it with their own. Why? Because the old stuff
doesn't give the answers they want.

This Doonesbury is appropriate:
