SE Aeronautics To Manufacture 'Greenest' Widebody Airliner

Reportedly Capable Of Carrying 264 Passengers With A Range Of 10,560 Miles

SE Aeronautics is launching a new widebody airliner concept, a 100% monocoque molded wide-body airliner that is being touted as a new generation of aircraft.

SE Aeronautics' new mid-market airliner concept, the SE200, carrying up to 264 passengers with a range of 10,560 miles and reducing CO2 production as measured by per seat kilometer by 80%. SE Aeronautics, leaders in sustainable air travel technology, announced the launch of their widebody airliner concept

Aircraft manufacturers have been using the same aircraft design for the past 60 years, with few exceptions.

"Our innovative technology and new aircraft design will lower fuel consumption by 70% and lower CO2 emissions by 80% as measured by per seat kilometer. The innovative design is a more efficient, light-tri wing configuration that greatly improves lift over drag, resulting in short take-off and landing (STOL) capabilities and extremely long flights. The construction is all composite, molded in one tough, safer piece. We also incorporated super thin, long wings and complete streamlining from the nose to the tail. We did it all,"  says Lloyd Weaver, Chief Engineer, SE Aeronautics.

This new design is also expected to double the lifespan of an aircraft, while reducing overall block hour cost by half when compared to other aircraft its size. The design is made of one solid-molded piece of fuselage that is reportedly many times stronger than existing aircraft. The fuel is not stored in the wings but in self sealing bladders on top of the fuselage.

"This aircraft will be the most practical, profitable and permanent solution to the grossly underperforming airliner technology of today. Our manufacturing efficiency will allow us to produce our aircraft in significantly less time than the current traditional method. But the jewel in the crown is really our ability to get that fuel consumption rate down by 70%. We are going to revolutionize the industry," says Tyler Mathews, CEO, SE Aeronautics.
