Algorithmic Glider Design— Stitching Surfaces

So now we have concave surfaces, we need something better than the pyramid shape to start from. I took a traces outline of an aerofoil that I wanted to extrude into 3D: Traced resolution: 0.5 in y and 1 in x To turn this into a solid I needed to extrude the points along the z direction....
