Purpose The purpose of the present work is to explore the possibilities of introducing a number of visionary and pioneering ideas and upcoming enabling technologies for a conceptual and aerodynamic design of green business jet aircraft to meet various requirements within Green and N+2 Aircraft framework, and at the same time to meet the requirements of air transportation demand, economic growth and environmental conservation. Design/methodology/approach A synthesis of various aircraft design methodologies has been carried out through iterative optimization to arrive at the conceptually designed aircraft with novel concept with optimum performance within the subsonic flight regimes. Major ideas derived from D8 and other novel concepts are appropriately applied in the work, which starts with fuel efficient motivation, and followed by wing Aerodynamics and other critical factors related to the Design Requirements and Objectives. Findings Through a meticulous effort following the synthesized design methodolog...
