Tom; As I remember Harry came up with a farily small scoop (amount of air necessary to run the motor= Hight x width x length (one mile). The scoop was well into clean air and had a coke bottle shape on the inside. I asume this was to speed up the air flow and overcome the tendency to spill back out the opening at positive pressure. It sure looked trick and those guys are pretty smart.
