Is this what air travel will look like in 2050? (3)

Thanks to its blended wing design the plane's fuselage would be wider and shorter, and it would be propelled by six biofuel engines

With a complete rethink, the team, including aircraft design PhD student Adam Omar, designed an advanced plane that bears some of the hallmarks of today’s jets and next-generation technology.

Thanks to its blended wing design its fuselage would be wider and shorter and it wouldn’t have a tail wing, and it would be propelled by six biofuel engines at the back of the body.

The widened body, with larger wings, would provide cabin space for up to 1,000 passengers, but the designers say the aircraft would have more legroom than today’s planes despite having so many people on board.

Of the notable changes, the concept plane has very few windows, which could make air travel uneasy for some.
