Allow aero decks to be scaled

Open jkirk5 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Desired capability or behavior.

Currently aero decks cannot be scaled using the subsonic_drag_coeff_factor or supersonic_drag_coeff_factor. Users (like MBSA&E) want to have some scaling possible when using decks, like those decks produced by VSPAero. They're looking to have this scaling applied downstream of the deck being read in.

Best way to do this is probably separate out the scaling component that applies the drag factors, and then re-use it for all drag scaling (FLOPS/GASP computation, and FLOPS/GASP tabular input)
