COMPUFOIL-

for altering, computing, and printing the rib patterns for my glider

on a

double tapered wing with different airfoils at the root and tip. It

will

also compute the coordinates for an eliptical wing. There are many

things

it will do. It was designed for model airplanes but will work on wings

up

to typical sailplane chord width. I've forgotten what the max chord

width

is. The website is http://www.compufoil.com.
