This paper will discuss examples of aerodynamic shape optimization at Deutsche Airbus in Bremen. First, we will introduce a general approach to aerodynamic shape design based on minimization of aircraft life energy costs. Realistic constraints are introduced on lift, pitching moments and thickness. This method is applied to the quasi-3D design of multipoint transonic wings which are analyzed by a full potential code with a coupled boundary layer calculation. Finally, this method is applied to the wing-body design of a Supersonic Civil Transport that is analyzed with a linear potential code with real flow corrections and a decoupled boundary layer calculations.
