Abstract
Content
Considerations are outlined about design aid for airframe shaping in small CAD systems. Authors discuss problems associated with the adaptation of existing programs. The particular solution: a simple 3-dimensional lofting extension of popular CAD system (Auto CAD) is presented. A brief description of its practical use in a composite glider fuselage designing and manufacturing is also included.
