No, it's really difficult to do major turbulence in a real tunnel, you
have to simulate total changes in wind direction - like driving past
trucks in a sidewwind - big energy involved. Actually cheaper to do
turbulence in sim on a big computer. Tunnels are actually obsolecent.
And extremely expensive, you've done well to blag the time. Did you get
a CD figure?
