Would somebody out there be kind enough to send me a zip file with all of Dr Drela's airfoils from the Charles River site on it please?
Every time I try to download, all I get is text files which, short o manually inputting them, I can't import in to Profil
Thanks

You can get them from the Profili web site.

Every time I try to download, all I get is text files...
Assuming you are on a Windows computer, this is easy to do correctly and easy to fix. If you are not on a Windows computer, the principles described below still apply.
How to download correctly:
In the Save as Type field, change the option from Text Files to All Files.
How to fix files already downloaded:
For existing saved files named wrong, rename or remove (depending on how you are saving them) to the appropriate extension. The actual format of the files are not changing during download.
Hence, AGxxx.dat.txt becomes AGxxx.dat
or AGxxx.txt becomes AGxxx.dat
Of course, rename DAT type to DAT and COR type to COR.
