zlin50lx's Issues

Bad Wing Airfoil parameters

Looking at the zlin50lx.tmd file, the main wing root/tip airfoil is uniitialized with
<[float64][Cl0][0.0]>
<[float64][Cd0][0.005]>
<[float64][Cm0][0.0]>
This means basically the wings do not provide any lift at AoA=0.0 degrees which is unlikely for main wings of any propeller driven aircraft.
