How to close a wing tip
Hey guys, I'm having troubles finding a command to close the tip of a wing (wing/vertical tail/horizontal stabilizer, same method). I have tried commands in surface and part design but haven't anything yet and the internet didn't give a solution.
Basically what I want to do is connect 3 curves (left contour, right contour and a drawn outer contour) that are tangential to the existing wing part, such that a nice enclosed tip is created.
I have added some pictures to give a better feeling and understanding of it, together with a sample wing tip. This is the kind of wing tip I wish to create. (source: http://aerospaceengineeringblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Airplane-Wing-Part-Diagram-Terminology.png)
Is there any good soul that could help me out?
Eternal thanks for the person that could help me with this.

Hi
I saw you're in Part workbench. Go to GSD, joint all the curves together (insure there are in tangents at least) and the try to use fill
Hi friend, do you have a copy of this 3D model? Try to send us a copy of this, to help you,
Thanks so much,
Have a good day,
its me again, friend!!! BINGOOOO!!! to this issue!!
I attach you the image, to close your profile,
let me take me some minutes to writte the procedure, step by step to close your surface.
Have a good day,
best regards,
I think i found a solution. you have to split the curves, then use multi-section command and fill with tangency. Finally check the tangency continuity using a join with tangency
