This is a Java program that calculates commonly used parameters related to airplane wing geometry such as area, taper ratio, aspect ratio, sweep, etc. As an aerospace engineer involved in airplane design, I find that I'm calculating these parameters all the time, so I wrote this program to help me out. To use this program, simply enter any parameters that you know, and the others will be calculated automatically.

For instance, if you know the wing span and aspect ratio, enter them, and the wing area will be calculated automatically. Or, if you know the wing span, root chord length, and tip chord length, you can enter them and the wing area, aspect ratio and taper ratio will be automatically calculated.
