Consideration of the compromises involved in advanced transport aircraft designs for Mach numbers approaching 1.0, to develop an environmentally acceptable and economically viable commercial transport. The impact of configuration constraints on a baseline aircraft is discussed, and details are given on the development of the aircraft from a wind tunnel model. The subjects covered also include the configuration cycle, aerodynamic and configuration concepts, full-scale aircraft characteristics, and an alternate aircraft configuration.
