Varn,

Yes, I would have to say that as short as the Kammback would be, that the info in post #427 would work great.

All the other posts where I'm sketching the full streamlined shape, I'm working with AeroHead on developing a good mathematical process of duplicating one of the ideal airfoil shapes, that's why it's so interesting to me.

Jim.
