OR computes the pressure and base drag for fins in the same method (FineSetCalc.calculatePressureCD()), and then reports their sum as pressure Cd. This makes the drag component analysis misleading; unless there's a really good reason (and I haven't looked closely enough to see if there is one) they should be calculated in separate methods and reported separately.

This certainly seems desirable... it would clearly illustrate what the different fin profiles are doing if nothing else.

The drag tab in general needs a bunch of changes to make it match the stability tab.
