Greetings. Using the Standard Atmosphere Calculator on www.desktopaero.com I have a Reynolds number for 9,500ft and a number for 100ft. My question is- should one take precedence over the other in regards to final airfoil selection? My gut tells me I should optimize the airfoil for take-off, but then again my gut told me I should marry my second ex-wife!

Thanks for the input

Duane
