Default CAD Tool For Design Tiny Aircraft

Personally, I prefer a pure geometry based modeler. Simple
dimensional changes affecting many components may take longer, but
it's far easier to make large sweeping changes if necessary, or switch
to an alternate design approach. Most of my work nowadays is large
machine design (though my degree is in aero engineering), for which I
use KeyCreator (formerly Cadkey). Same price range as SWX, though,
which I don't define as "cheap".

This seems like it would be a helpful link.

Just want to summarize that SolidWorks seems to be what I was looking
for. Alibre's CEO makes a compelling argument about tactics of
salespeople to derail reason (in this case, he's talking about
SolidWorks), so I might at least give that a look. But I spoke to
sales engineer yesterday and SolidWorks is surely what I was looking
for.

Thanks for all the links Jon & All. I've been looking at them.

So much to learn, so little time.
