I cannot speak to your airframe. When we did the calcs on Voyager, we figured
we added roughly half a knot for each antenna we put inside the fuselage. I'd
probably guess about the same for you.

Worth the bother? Perhaps. Surely makes a cleaner looking airplane, even WITH
the scab patches over the old antenna holes (painted to match, of course).
