> Are you imagining small sci-fi rapid thrusters throughout that can generate enough thrust to counteract?
That's exactly, what i imagined, at least.

This article is about a PoC where they put sensors extended out of the airframe of a small slow moving aircraft and demonstrated a 60% prediction accuracy for a 10% fuel savings. It’s unlikely this approach would scale up to an airliner. The sensor problem might be but I have big questions about the adjustments an airliner moving at 600-900 mph can make to successfully counteract the prediction.
