An oval lifting-body airplane may generate lift without wings. It may be propelled by a pivoting propulsion engine attached to an upper surface, allowing it to fly substantially parallel to the oval's major axis or the oval's minor axis, allowing different configurations for landing and takeoff than for cruising.
