Here's an AutoCAD drawing containing an overlay of the ordinates found on http://www.airminded.net/piet/piet.html and the dimensons given in the F&G manual. Unless I totally screwed up entering the dimensions from the F&G manual they are either less than perfect or it's a brilliant airfoil of some sort. You all take a look. The cayn line with the yellow circles is the F&G airfoil and the Red spline was generated from the ordinates found at the above site.AutoCAD drawing viewers are easy to find as freeware. I tested the drawing file with the free viewer found at http://www.infograph.com/products/dwgviewer/(remember you take responsability for you own downloads). Anyway, the drawing fileis attached.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2006 15:20:08 -0400
