2025: AirNextGen Flies NASA CESTOL Airliner
Loading...
Uploaded by theworacle on Dec 29, 2009
Video produced by the FAA-led Joint Planning and Development Office, responsible for overseeing modernisation of the US national airspace system, illustrating how NextGen technologies are intended to help the traveller. The aircraft is a NASA Cruise-Efficient Short Take-Off and Landing (CESTOL) concept intended to use smaller runways at metroplex airports.

@Chopin742 Naive design as hell. Not even original.
-
More difficult engine maintenance, less engine choices by fixed diameter inlet, more potential for turbulence due to larger wings, stealth design enhancing collision risk in civilian traffic, absurdally long and expensive certification process and tickets due to completely non-standard layout, engine fire potentially hazardous to wing structure, lower wing elongation decreases performance, cabin without windows.

wher are the windows?

I think if the engines are embedded in the wing and the exhaust is traveling over the top it makes for a quieter plane. Also making an emergency belly landing on land or water would not be as dangerous, the engines wouldn't catch water and tear the wings off and flip the plane over, not unlike that Airbus that ditched off the beach in Mauritius years ago killing nearly everyone on board. This thing would just skim along, it would almost be fun...

@keuschh
I think passengers would choose low ticket cost. Most passengers are more interested in inflight entertainment systems than windows.
