The possibility of designing aircraft with reduced fuel consumption is examined. Present day techniques reviewed include engines with high dilution ratio, supercritical airfoils, mass reduction by using composite materials for secondary structures, and economic flight control. Future techniques include use of composite materials for main structural elements, and active control. Some projects discussed briefly are the Boeing 747, Lockheed L-1011-600A, Falcon 50, and Mercure 200.
