XFOIL is an interactive program for the design and analysis of subsonic isolated airfoils.Given the coordinates specifying the shape of a 2D airfoil, Reynolds and Mach numbers, XFOIL can calculate the pressure distribution on the airfoil and hence lift and drag characteristics.
QBlade is especially adequate for teaching, as it provides a ’hands-on’ feeling for Horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT) rotor design and shows all the fundamental relationships between blade twist, blade chord, section airfoil performance, turbine control, power and load curves in an easy and intuitive way. QBlade also includes post ...

FlightGear started as an online proposal in 1996 by David Murr, living in the United States. He was dissatisfied with proprietary, available, simulators like the Microsoft Flight Simulator, citing motivations of companies not aligning with the simulators' players ("simmers"), and proposed a new flight simulator developed by volunteers over the Internet.
Predecessors to OpenVSP including VSP [1] and Rapid Aircraft Modeler (RAM) were developed by J.R. Gloudemans and others [2] for NASA beginning in the early 1990s. [3] OpenVSP v2.0 was released as open source under the NOSA license in January 2012.
GeoFS (previously known as GEFS-online) is a free Dutch multi-platform browser-based multiplayer flight simulator based on the Cesium WebGL Virtual Globe. The game contains multiple aircraft, including several user contributed aircraft. [2] The SD resolution is based on images provided by the Sentinel-2 satellite.
