Flying-V - an innovative highly energy-efficient concept aircraft!! V-shaped airliner that seats passengers in the wings instead of a central fuselage could make long-distance air travel more sustainable. The wide-fuselage long-haul aircraft will integrate the passenger cabin, cargo hold and fuel tanks in the wing structure, giving it a futuristic V-shaped look. The aerodynamic shape of the jet, where all the components are housed in the wings of the plane, would reduce its weight, allowing it to save 20% on fuel. V-shaped aircraft could make use of existing airport infrastructure and would be able to carry 314 passengers in standard configuration and 160 cubic meters of cargo. KLM Airlines recently entered into a cooperative agreement with TU for further research into the concept .
