My theory -- which I mentioned in the original post -- was that a
sufficiently dense I-field can push aside particles below a certain mass and
below a certain velocity. Particles above this density, or a sufficiently
fast particle, will pass through an I-field fine, in the process ripping a
hole in the I-field.
In other words, a Minovsky Craft system would generate a dense
I-field capable of displacing air particles, but if an MS comes flying
through that field, the Minvosky Craft may lose lift and crash.

I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection.
Excellence I can reach for; perfection is God's business.
