foils/shapes

Well, tired of plotting coordinates, I came upon this: http://www.ae.illinois.edu/m-selig/a...atabase.html#N There are mistakes, e.g., naca0015.gif and some truly "Airbus" looking stuff, e.g., n1h15.gif, but I found this extremely helpful for what I was doing. Pros probably have needed foils in one of their programs. I just get a little blurry-eyed and this makes it simple. Hope this helps somebody.
Oh, another thing. Check this out, maybe somebody can use it. http://web.mac.com/rlivingston/Bearb...earboatSP.html

Those are interesting foil cross-sections. Thanks, Mark.
