A method and apparatus for supplying air to a precooler. Air flow is created through a fan duct in an engine system. A first portion of the air flow is directed into a first inlet of an inlet system to feed a first half of the precooler. A second portion of the air flow is directed through the fan duct into a second inlet of the inlet system to feed a second half of the precooler.
