They had a concept design for a new passenger jet with a canard (Horizontal stabiliser at the front, providing an upward force instead of down, meaning much more efficieny and less danger of stalling at transonic speeds.). But the public had a bad reaction to it, thinking it doesn't look safe or something. So Boeing changed back to a more conventional design and now here comes the 787.
I'm wondering how the public will react to this new one you just mentioned. |
Thats a pretty good explanation of what happened.
I'm looking forward to Blended Wing-Body planes, as they should greatly revolutionize the industry. I read a rumor in Aviation weekly from a while back that Airbus may make a BWB plane in the future. It'd be sweet.
