- This disk contains a revision of the program Airfoil, which appeared
- originally on Fred Fish disk #71.
-
- A technical correction has been made, which allows for a term neglected
- in the original program. Inclusion of this term vastly improves the
- credibility of the airflow pattern and pressure distribution when the wing
- is inclined to the airflow. As with the original program, the basic theory
- is ' in the public domain '. The trick was to get the improvement into
- a form consistent with the original programming. I couldnt do this
- exactly, but the approximation made is sufficient for flow visualization
- purposes.

- The program restarts well for small angles of incidence ( < 10 degrees )
- but the requester is not responded to for large incidence angles.
- May be a memory problem because the code seems insensitive to angle
- of incidence changes.
