Soartech Airfoil coordinate data can be exported using this facility. The format of the Soartech airfoil data is the 'Eppler' format, ie; coordinates start at the trailing edge on the upper surface of the airfoil, continuing around the leading edge and back to the trailing edge along the lower surface. The first line in the file is the name of the airfoil.
