Abstract of the Disclosure Modifications to a jet aircraft of the type having aft fuselage-mounted engine nacelles overlapping trailing edge portions of the aircraft's wings, wherein a channel area defined by the fuselage, wing, pylon and attached nacelle is shaped to prevent air flowing therethrough from forming a shock wave during flight operation in the transonic regime, resulting in significant drag reduction as compared to an unmodified jet aircraft of a similar type. Further modifications to the jet aircraft's wings provide additional lift while signifi- cantly reducing drag as compared to a similar, unmodified aircraft. The present invention is particularly adaptable for use with Gates Learjet type aircraft, especially Models 23, 24, 25 and other models having similar nacelle, pylon and inboard wing arrangements.
