Hi

I know nothing abut cad.... I would like to be able to make wings fuses and other various things both foam wings and built up..

please suggest a simple/cheap cad program that works on vista.

Thank you

Steven
I agree that TurboCAD probably has the most bang for the buck. Since you are totally new to CAD you can download the free learning edition to play with before purchasing a newer edition. Not sure if it works on Vista so I would be curious to know if it does and it is free to try. Profili2 is also needed for the airfoils. A limited edition is free and you can export airfoils to use in TurboCAD.

The free TurboCAD LE has been more difficult to find so I put it on my site for download. Try it for free. Upgrade for very little later if CAD is your thing. If you try it let me know if it works on Vista.
