Abstract

The evolution in aircraft industry has brought to us many new aircraft designs. Each and every new design is a step toward a greener tomorrow. Design plays a vital role in deciding the flight characteristics and determining its efficiency. The proposed design has been designed keeping 100,000 lbs as the payload. Raked wingtips, canards, and elliptical shaped fuselage are the highlighting features of the proposed design. Reduction of drag will also be observed due to delay in separation point. Expected outcome of proposed design is less amount of fuel burn because of reduction in drag.
