ABSTRACT:
A strake, or strakes, or faired simulation of same, mounted on a typical engine nacelle or similar wing mounted body to reduce or prevent the formation of vortices usually occurring with nacelle-wing combinations to improve the lift and drag characteristics of the combination and improve the stability of the aircraft since the undesireable variations of downwash changes over the tail surfaces are reduced or eliminated.
