Measured second- and third-order moments of longitudinal and transverse
velocity increments are examined for relatively large values of the
Taylor microscale Reynolds number 
in highly turbulent
shear flows. The results support an approach to a Kolmogorov-like
inertial range only at very large values of .
Correspondingly, the difference between inertial range power law
exponents of longitudinal and transverse velocity structure functions
continues to diminish as increases.
