Do any of you guys know if there is software for designing airplanes that would take into account materials used, airfoil selection, calculate CG, do stress analysis, etc.? Kind of a CAD program that would let you know if the concept/design was in the ball park feasible?

Those of you who have seen me post know I'm not an engineer. At my age, if I went back to school for aeronautical engineering, they'd be shovelling dirt on my Final Container before I achieved competency in calculus.

I get ideas and don't have an outlet for them.
