The L-1011 may have looked "right", but I imagine the arrangement on
the DC 10 was more efficient. Didn't have to go bending the airflow this
way and that just to get it to the engine.


Yes, but this discussion is all about looks. As for inefficiency of the S
duct, I think you'd have to consider the efficiency of the installation as a
whole. How did putting the thrust line that high affect it?
