A wing (11, 12) in combination with a fuselage (10), the wing having a relatively unswept and sharp leading edge, where the thickness to chord ratio is about 2 % or less beyond a calculated point near the fuselage and the thickness to chord ratio is substantially greater than 2 % near the fuselage, and the fuselage having an indentation (6c') proximat e the wing. The selection of the wing and fuselage indentation is characterized by the maximization of various figures of merit such as reduced drag, cost, or weight.
