Camber Line in CFX Post

Can anyone tell me how to create a plane through the camber line of an airfoil in CFX post.
i also want to extract the camber line in cfx post

If the camber line makes a plane then it is easiest to simply define it using the known tip and tail points. I assume you know these points because you drew it!

If the camber line is not straight or the twists along the airfoil then it is more tricky and I will need to think about that - and then it is not a plane but a complex surface.
