ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to aircraft designs with substantial trim drag reduction while maintaining commercially feasible low parasitic and induced drag. The stable or control configured aircraft utilizes controllable winglets to generate pitching, yawing, and rolling moments in flying wing or tailless airframe configurations which are preferably of a swept forward style.
