Boeing has been studying the structural, aerodynamic and operational advantages of a blended-wing body aircraft concept for potential future military applications. We are conducting flight tests in 2007 on two high-fidelity subscale prototypes -- designated X-48B--to learn more about the concept-s critical low-speed flying characteristics.
