Introduction

A replica of the Transonic Truss-braced Wing (TTBW) aircarft, a concept plane proposed by Boeing and NASA.

The TTBW features long, braced, high aspect ratio wing that reduces induced drag and makes the aircraft 20-30% more fuel efficient than traditional airliners. The concept aircraft may eventually be seen on a single-aisle successor to the ageing Boeing 737 family.
