Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An aircraft (5) including an aerodynamic surface (6), an aerodynamics improvement device with a first electrode (27) embedded beneath and electrically isolated from the aerodynamic surface (6), a second electrode (28) electrically isolated from the first electrode (27), a voltage generator (30) adapted to apply a voltage between the first and the second electrode, further comprising a layer of electrically insulating material (26) between the second electrode (28) and the aerodynamic surface (6). Methods for detecting ice on and de-icing an aerodynamic surface (6), and for delaying a boundary layer transition and separation from the aerodynamic surface.
