I'd like to get a CAD program. This will be mostly for drawing up
model airplane plans, but will be used for some other mechanical
design. With models, I want to put scanned-in bitmaps of scale
3-views and design the model over them. Better yet, a program that
would be able to do a good job of turning a scan into a line drawing
would be ever so cool.

I have a copy of "TurboCAD Designer 2D/3D" Version 8, which I picked
up ages ago. It's sitting in my wastebasket because it does nothing
but crash my machine.

Anyone have any CAD program suggestions? Is Turbo CAD now reliable?
A 2D program would be sufficient, but I wouldn't say no to a 3D
program if the price were right.

Thanks.
