It sound like what you want might be "Horizontal Ordinate Dimension" found under the "Smart Dimension" dropdown as Jay mentioned. If you are trying for a certain set interval, you can make a sketch and repeat the lines using the "Linear Sketch Pattern" function. Justin

FYI the main website Hoerner Fluid Dynamic Drag - Hoerner Fluid Dynamics seems to have gotten their SSL back into place so it is secure now. Justin

Mainly I'm looking for design heuristics like "don't start fuselage taper until after the wing TE", etc. Things like that have been discussed on this forum and a lot of books I have reference Hoerner as does Mike(?) Arnold in the youtube vids from the "Arnold Company". Any suggestions are much...

Thank you I sent them a contact request.

Oh boy that looks impossible to read. Thank you for the heads up! Justin

Hey everyone, Anyone want to sell their copy of Fluid Dynamic Drag? I see there is a website selling them but it is unsecure and I don't want to put my credit card info in there. Anyway, let me know if you want to offload yours for some $. Thank you, Justin

These vids are awesome, thank you for posting the link! Justin

Hi Austin, regarding your suggestions for reading material. If you have any physics, math, or basic engineering knowledge, skip all the others and get Snorri Gudmundson's book. I have and have worked through virtually every design book, including both of Raymer's books, Nicolai (early and...

Thank you for the info and reference. I hope to find that "Master Lines Manual" and pick it up but there's nothing available right now. Most of my knowledge is regarding the Spitfire, but occasionally the Mustang gets referenced in there. I have read a couple places that the Mustang produced...

Several design books don't fully address the issue of the fuse and effect on the section lift of the wing. In Gudmundsson's book (far and away the best one but not perfect) he shows how the section lift drops dramatically at the fuse via analysis by VLM software (I think). He suggests that in...

Thank you so much! Oddly enough google had archived the small ones from your website. I'm looking at a 6.5-10 so the larger one helps a ton too! Hopefully I'll have something really neat to show from this before long. Justin P.S. Are the brakes as bad as you hear about? I need a slim...

Hello Crew, Does anyone have an old Goodyear wheel and brake catalog or index of what part numbers were used on what aircraft? I don't need the tire catalog, that is still readily available. Thank you in advance! Justin

That is very cool! Good luck moving forward:) Justin

That was really neat to see! Thanks for posting. Justin

Unfortunately that shop (shown in the link, in CDA, Idaho) just went up for sale. It's around $400k +/- . No word on the business, could be moving to full production facility though or who knows. Justin
