The main objective of the AVACON project is to evaluate the impact of various technologies and aircraft configurations for an entry into service in 2028 within a consortium of industry partners, research entities and universities. To perform a fair and justifiable comparison with numerous partners the same understanding and level of accuracy of the reference aircraft is inevitable. The focus of this paper will be the design of a common reference aircraft for a 4600nm mission carrying 257 passengers. The elaboration of the top level aircraft requirements for the midrange aircraft will be covered as well as the aircraft characteristics and the design decisions made during the design process to define an agreed baseline for technology and configuration evaluation.
