An asymmetric aircraft configuration having a first and a second wing, the first wing having a span larger than the second wing. A first engine is mounted on the first wing, and a second engine mounted on the rear end of the aircraft with its centerline aligned with the aircraft longitudinal axis. The rear end of the aircraft has a T tail, and the second engine is configured to ingest and consume air forming a boundary layer during the flight. A main landing gear assembly includes a first landing gear attached to the first wing, and a second landing gear attached to an area of the fuselage close to the second wing.
