A vortex generator (200) includes a depression (202) in an aerodynamic surface (126), and a vortex generator leading edge (300) located in the depression (202). The vortex generator leading edge includes a leading edge upper surface (312). The leading edge upper surface (312) is positioned at or below a tangent line defined at a location along the aerodynamic surface (126) upstream of the depression (202) relative to an oncoming local flow.
