This screen provides the capability to copy an existing airfoil as a new airfoil for further modification or experimentation.

Steps;

1. Select an airfoil to copy from the drop down list by clicking on the down arrow or type the first character of the name of the airfoil you wish to copy.

2. Click on the appropriate check boxes to select  data to be copied.

All are selected by default. 

3. Enter the name of the new airfoil


If you enter the name of an existing airfoil in the New Airfoil Name box then you will be prompted to confirm that you wish to overwrite the existing airfoil.


Warning The modification of existing airfoils is not recommended. Without a thorough knowledge of aerodynamics and extensive wind tunnel testing modifications will in most cases reduce the performance and could lead to poor aircraft flight and stability characteristics.
