UWS-4 Aero Design: Part5a, Wing Airfoil Selection

The next section of Dan Raymer's book "Simplified Aircraft Design for Homebuilders" is about choosing the airfoil for our wing. This is the first part of a 2 part video where we talk about what characteristics we want in our airfoil and what the operating points (Reynolds Number and Coefficient of Lift) our wing will operate at. In the next part we do the actual analysis and choose an airfoil.
