The one that said you were wrong about "vortices"?

Anyway, a vortex can certainly form at a trailing edge. In general, ones
that do are temporary.... but then MC asked about shedding and he wasn't
(I assume) talking about dogs.

One way to suppress a tip vortex is to deliberately induce a vortex
slightly inboard along the trailing edge. That is part of what makes
wing keels work.



.. Different dynamics, different effects.

Wait a minute, I thought you said they formed for the same reason?



they do, but the **dynamics** AND the **effects** are different. which

word
didn't you understand?


Oh, I understand the words just fine. Your explanation is a little bit
fuzzy, though. Would you clarify?
