*chuckle* Did you ever see the episode of Junkyard Wars where they built gliders? Their airfoils weren't computer plotted or accurately skinned, yet they flew. Go figure :^) <RANT> I think that some of the best airfoils may never be discovered by analyzing a computer model alone. You can have a whole lot of fun, and learn a whole lot too, by just free-hand drawing an airfoil and trying it out. One day we might all be using airfoils labeled with your initials :) </RANT> -- Andrew E. Mileski RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
