The Blended Wing Body (BWB) concept represents a transformative shift in aircraft design, merging the wing and fuselage into a single, continuous lifting surface. This integration offers ...

United Airlines has become the latest U.S. carrier after Alaska Airlines and Delta Air Lines to publicly announce an investment in JetZero’s blended wing body (BWB) concept.

While super-efficient blended wing body concepts are starting to gain traction, there are still some issues that need to be ...

The first to commercialise blended-wing-body design, Natilus is developing a family of aircraft designed to unlock improved aviation economics by reducing fuel consumption by 30% while increasing ...

Blended wing airplanes differ from traditional tube-and-wing designs in that the aircraft's wings are blended seamlessly with its body, allowing all body surfaces to produce lift and minimize drag.

By establishing its first manufacturing facility for blended-wing-body aircraft in the U.S., Natilus expects to be well-positioned to mitigate the impact of potential trade restrictions and supply ...

The F-22 will be remembered for being a generation or two ahead of its time with respect to air superiority prowess and ...

A plane that's essentially one giant wing. The airline on Thursday unveiled a plan to buy up to 200 of the 'blended-wing body' aircraft from California-based aerospace startup JetZero.

By the late 2020s, JetZero plans to begin flying a full-scale demonstrator aircraft of its blended wing body design. The new type of aircraft, which has an ultra-wide fuselage and flat tail, is ...
