Patent ID: 8262017

Claim:
An aircraft comprising: area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft; a fuselage configured in shape for area ruling calculations and contribute to the area ruling throughout a length of the aircraft; at least two lifting surfaces including a forward lifting surface and an aft lifting surface wherein the aft lifting surface includes a larger surface area than the forward lifting surface and the forward lifting surface includes rudder and elevator components configured in shape to combine with the fuselage area ruling calculations and contribute to the area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft; wherein an inner portion of the forward lifting surface further includes a V shape formed with a left and right forward lifting surface adjacent to a fuselage forming a large dihedral angle with the fuselage where the inner left and right forward lifting surfaces attach with the fuselage, wherein the inner left and right forward lifting surface adjacent to the fuselage is additionally angled slightly forward from the fuselage attachment point, wherein an outer portion of the forward lifting surface includes an outward and an aft sweep such that a unique stalling sequence results from the design of the forward lifting surface in relation to the aft lifting surface and the outer portion of the forward lifting surface includes a slight anhedral angle; wherein the forward lifting surface stalls prior to the aft lifting surface; an airbrake at the rear of the fuselage configured in shape to combine with the fuselage area ruling calculations and contribute to the area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft; wherein the area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft includes area ruling from the nose over the total length of the fuselage moving aft along the fuselage; an area ruled outer area on each side of the fuselage moves aft increasing in area to a midpoint of the fuselage then continues aft blending with the forward and aft lifting surfaces; landing gear wheel wells are included in the area ruling calculation and contribute to the area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft; the area ruled outer area on each side of the fuselage carries bagged fuel on each side of the fuselage within area ruling calculations and contribute to the area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft; and the constant section fuselage permits the area ruling with a minimum flat on the maximum curve at a midpoint on the aircraft length on the area ruled curve with miniscule change in drag factor; and an aircraft propulsion system configured in shape to combine with the fuselage area ruling calculations and contribute to the area ruling throughout the length of the aircraft.
