Actually I am still waiting for them to blow off? I'm not going fast enough for that yet.
I remember Gary Hall's blowing off of his race car. You can't just hang'em on the window gaskets. You need to fasten them into the sheet metal!
My guess would be that they do shovel air in if they blow off…. If they would be in dead air nothing would happen…
I once forgot my pump out pump for the floats of my Amphibious airplane on top of the float and I took off at the airport and I looked down through the window and the pump which is made out of plastic tubing, 24 inches long maybe weight 1 pound was laying on top of the float and I was flying about 90 miles an hour and it did not care (or fly off) I made the best and softest water landing I ever did and retrieved my pump..
Dead air is dead air…
