An aerodynamic fairing assembly comprising a pair of contoured fairings hingely mounted to the sides of the aft end of a cargo trailer having hinged rear doors. Each fairing features a contoured forward extent which provides an aerodynamically smooth transition from the side of the trailer to the aft extent of the fairing with no appreciable step or gap between the trailer and the fairing. The fairings are slaved to the trailer doors by collapsible struts such that opening and closing the doors stows and deploys the fairings respectively without applying a resistive load to the doors or otherwise interfering with their operation. Other embodiments are described. |
