Howdy All;

Sorry, When I read it I thought along the lines of 'Spoilers' as something
usually attached to the rear of a car or truck to create a negative air space
and think of a deflector to disrupt the flow so that is goes around or over something.
Semantics, reckon it's all in the usage... :thinking:
