Create a blend solid part wiht wariable section

Question

I have a large quantity points coordinate for each section in excel file. These points divide between few plane. One case have a two plane. Another case I have a five planes.Therefore, a five different points data.The quantity of points for each plane a slightly different, all around 30 points for each plane. I need to create smooth solid blend extrusion. Part looks similar to wing or propeller. Problem: 1.After importing this point into offset point table, I can't make a curve, utilize exactly these points. 2. When I try to blend, I have always different number of verticals. Please, maybe somebody have a good reference material which provide step by step solution. Thanks everyone!

do u have a pic of what u want the model to ultimately look like? have u tried creating a 2d sketch on the top plane for example and then using those curves to determine theprofile then creating datum planes offset by XX distance from one another or from center line, and then creating curve sections on each plane then doimg a blend? i think this would work for a wing and prop design, mightnot work for the prop design f the pitch is pretty crazy, but thats why i asked if u had a picture of the part in question. sounds like u are reverse engineering something from a point cloud created by a CMM or some sort of scanner or inspection equiptment and now trying to model it, i'm assuming the part in question is available.
