Abstract
RDS-Professional is a sophisticated yet friendly PC-based aircraft design and analysis system developed for the conceptual design of new aircraft and the initial analysis of derivatives and alternate missions. RDS-Professional is suitable for use by aircraft designers in industry, government, and academia for conceptual trade studies, technology evaluations, and preliminary performance predictions. This paper provides an overview of RDS-Professional and illustrates its usage for design of a general aviation aircraft.
