I am looking for information on building wing sections for the least
aerodynamic drag. (not for lift).  

Does anyone know of a publication that shows in detail the NACA and
NASA wing sections?  I have seen some books that show the coefficient
of drag for the various 4 and 5 digit NACA wings but none that show
you the detail the wing shape itself. Is there a publication where
this is defined (perhaps available from NTIS).

Please e-mail me any replys as I do not get a feed of this group.

					Thanks in advance.
