Sorry ,I mislead you.I was thinking about the RcCad program today at work and now I opened it up and find that it is Model Cad that you can put the airfoils in and it prints each rib for a tappered wing not RcCad.I guess that is why I have both programs.The RcCad is nice for the fuse formers and plans and the Model Cad works great on double tappered wings.You still have to look through a small library of airfoils and then load the symbol from the file and place it on the drawing where you want it.
What I did was to scan the tip and root ribs off the plans that I had and then saved them in the library under my name and then it was easy to find and use the airfoil that I wanted.

Hope this helps
Larry
