ABSTRACT:
This invention involves a simple but radical approach to airplane design. Many advantages and benefits result therefrom including improved flight efficiency, better handling and control response, less tail area required, increased safety, increased utility of airplanes, and reduced ground handling and hangar facility requirements. A solution is provided for the inherent problems of combining the utility of a surface conveyance with the freedom and swiftness of flight.
