Standard lift and drag equations. Doing stream tube analysis generally requires a computer (plus some trig and calculus), regular fixed wing aerodynamics don't really require more than algebra and some patience (again, a computer makes it easier). A really good simulation would require a bunch of computer power and is way more effort than I'm willing to make.
