This lecture discusses envisaged advanced concepts across the speed range including VTOL converticars (personal air transportation), advanced subsonic and supersonic long haul transports, hypersonic transports, and developments/applications of flow control technology. Special emphasis is given to advanced VTOL configurations which may offer simultaneous opportunities for mitigation of both drag-due-to-lift and wake vortex hazard and to synergistic propulsive and aerodynamic interactions. The lecture concludes that a virtual revolution in the civilian aeronautical world is conceivable as a result of technology maturation in several areas which could enable the exploitation of 'end-point' designs.
