ABSTRACT:
An aircraft having a wing with a top surface and a bottom surface, with the top surface having a first plurality of jets containing flow straighteners integrally hinged to the skin of the aircraft and positioned to direct air rearwardly along the top surface of the wing and the bottom surface having a second plurality of jets containing flow straighteners integrally hinged to the skin of the aircraft and positioned for directing air forwardly along the bottom surface of the wing and a compressor for receiving outside air and pressurizing the air which is then directed rearwardly along the top of the wing to decrease the pressure on top of the wing and forwardly along the bottom surface of the wing to increase the pressure on the bottom of the wing to increase the lift of the wing and thereby increase the lift and permit the aircraft to takeoff and land at a ground speed slower than if the pressurized air was not directed over the wing.
