I have been looking for information on drag on fabric aircraft. I have been reading through some books on aircraft design and homebuilding and unfortunately aluminum and composites are always covered but fabric often goes undiscussed.

Does anyone know of any litterature or books that cover estimating drag of a fabric covered aircraft? Even a relative comparison would be helpful.
