This is a 3-4 Axis XY-XYUV Foam EDM Style airfoil generator. It uses Airfoil Wing Profile data from the UIUC Airfoil Data Site.

The Generator requires either Python Imaging Library (PIL) or Pillow.

Installation on Debian:

sudo apt-get install python-pillow

Installation on Mac:

xcode-select --install
sudo -H pip install pillow

To download the latest version of the airfoil data, use the script:
