In one of my classes, me and another teammate must make a foam swim noodle fly. I would appreciate any and all help here, since I am not that familiar with airfoils. We have to make it fly at least 50 feet.

Any ideas on what shape the wing should be?
Note: The wing area has to be at least 100 in^2


Edit: I will be posting images of the plane as we go along.

It will look something like this, but with the back wings a lot larger.

Or something like this:

Too bad I can't code this in TI-Basic.
