Concept of laminar flow control which prevents formation of turbulent flow by pulling slow moving, turbulent prone air adjacent to wing surface through slots cut spanwise in outer skin, and passing it through ducts inside aircraft structure, pumping it overboard; development of 2 demonstration aircraft by Northrop Corp; research results, and design efforts; comparison of performance and direct operating costs of subsonic turbulent and LFC jet transports.
