Revised sidepod inlet geometry extending downwards and rearwards Optimised following earlier changes upstream the sidepod inlet has been re-profiled and re-positioned to capture air with good enough pressure for the radiators. This led to re-profiling to meet the floor.

Revised sidepod panels to meet the new inlet geometry then following the floor junction profile Having altered the inlet, the consequence was then to re-optimise the sidepod profiles simultaneously matching the updated floor at the junction line. Minor changes to the central engine cover and cooling louvres.

Subtle revisions to the surfaces including forward floor as well as the junction line with the topbody A further iteration of optimisation to compliment the new sidepod inlet, extending to the forward floor and then to the sidepod all to generate more local load and extract performance Floor Board Performance – flow conditioning Subtle profile changes to the louvres and supports between

As part of the sidepod revision, a floor board change was also accomplished to offer another iteration of design to improve the downstream conditions for the sidepod and beyond.

Reprofiled fairings and junctions to the tail/gearbox and into the rear wheel bodywork Revisions to the fairings to better match the upstream conditions and maintain flow stability whilst extracting more local load.

Revised for the rear suspension fairings and attendant winglets Primarily inboard of the rear wheels to accommodate the fairing revisions and blends into the wheel bodywork keeping the surfaces tidy whilst maintaining flow stability.

Revised overlap between the tailpipe exit profile and the supporting tailpipe bracket A subtle re-positioning of the tailpipe has enabled the last portion, which is regulated to circulated and within a limited angle range to have greater overlap with the one permitted supporting bracket to extract more local load.

Revised pylon profiles Given the pylons now by regulation contact the mainplane underside, the interface is sensitive and revised with pylon changes to the same element profiles seeking to extract more load and at least maintain flow stability.
