Abstract:
A tandem wing aircraft having a fore wing, an aft wing, and a middle wing, attached relative to the aircraft and each other such that the middle wing provides a substantial portion of the total lift at landing speeds, and a minimal portion of the total lift at cruise speeds. At cruise speeds, induced drag is minimized, permitting higher speeds, greater fuel efficiency, and/or greater payload. Advantageously, the wing loading at cruise speeds is higher providing better passenger comfort while still providing controllability and safety at landing speeds.

Claim (Index 12):
A method of operating a tandem wing aircraft having a fore wing, an aft wing, and a middle wing each having an Angle of Attack (AOA) in flight, comprising:\n positioning the middle wing between the fore and aft wings having different AOA's in flight; positioning the middle wing relative to the aircraft using a mechanical device attached to the middle wing selectable to change the middle wing AOA during flight such that at cruise speeds, the AOA of the middle wing is approximately zero (0).
