ABSTRACT:
A large transport aircraft, for more than 400 passengers, with a first wing (3) extending from an intermediate point on the fuselage (1) and a second wing (4) extending from the rear of the fuselage, in proximity to the fin (2). The first wing comprises two halfwings (3a, 3b) swept backward, while the two halfwings (4a, 4b) of the second wing (4) are swept forward. The first and second wings lie on two vertically spaced planes and are connected to one another by respective aerodynamic surfaces (5a, 5b) rigid in their plane in correspondence with the respective halfwings lying on the same side of the fuselage. The first wing (3) can be either at a higher level than the second wing (4) or at a lower level.
