Computer Program: For Analysis and Comparison Of Aircraft Designs
RESPONSE to our computer program (for canard aircraft design assistance) presented in the June 1984 issue of Model Aviation has been positive and enthusiastic. Apparently our assumption that many modelers have home computers and want to use them for modeling purposes is correct. Our program was put to good use assisting in the design of a new canard Pattern aircraft, which was published in Flying Models magazine. Since then we have developed another computer program which we feel can be even more helpful to modelers. Why does one airplane perform better than another? What changes in the design make it better? Which airplane should you build next?
