Anyone wish to develop a custom script?

Hi Brian,

I tried out your latest update. Very nice. I see the error you found and can duplicate it. I determined it is indeed round-off error. Here are the arrays including the tangent points with as much precision as I can have with the tools available to me:

They do not have the one point I take off to have the curve fit work out. So at this point you have a couple of options you can follow. I compared what burrman did to what I did and the difference is small. I am fine with either one. They both make a nice solid with no ripples or any other distortions. Both deviate from the naca definition to make everything work out, as the naca definition contains some error. I am keeping the le and te radius definitions and relaxing the data points by using a curve fit. With burrmans method you can keep the data points using a control point spline and then modify the le definition. The te definition is fine as is.

Very nice work.
