"A V formation (sometimes called a skein) is the symmetric V-shaped flight formation of flights of geese, ducks, and other migratory birds. V formations also improve the fuel efficiency of aircraft and are used on military flight missions."

Further reading will show you most birds don't actually use a V formation anyways, but most actually use a J formation. In addition it will also tell you it's not so much that the first bird "breaks the wind" as the following birds ride on the upwind vortexes of the birds in front of them.
Either way, it doesn't have anything to do with Sleepy's v thing working or not. The real world doesn't always mirror nature or vice versa.
If sleepys v works, use it... if it doesn't work for you don't.
Either way, do we really need to have a my "wind deflector" is bigger than your "wind deflector" conversation every other week in here?
