This is a special one-day version of Dan Raymer's amazingly-useful class in Aircraft Configuration Design Layout, Loft, & CAD, and is frequently taken as an advanced follow-on to the popular 5-day Aircraft Design Short Course.

Developed for those who, like Raymer, actually work in new aircraft configuration layout, this class provides an expert's insight into the subject covering topics such as fuselage layout for minimum drag and cost, wing layout for optimal aerodynamics, and the classical lofting methods upon which current practice is based. The class also discusses modern computerized lofting mathematics as used in Computer-Aided Design systems, and includes advice on the best way to use CAD for aircraft concept design.

The class is shortened by removing background material and duplication with Raymer's 5-day design class, so this 1-day version is only recommended for those who have taken that class already or are already broadly familiar with such methods. Feel free to take both classes - many do!
