A dual boundary layer engine inlet for a turbofan propulsion engine of an aircraft having a first air inlet positioned generally within the boundary layer flowing around the exterior surface of the aircraft. A first passageway fluidly interconnects the first air inlet and the turbofan propulsion engine to provide air from the boundary layer to the bypass to reduce aerodynamic drag. A second air inlet is positioned generally outside of the boundary layer. This second passageway fluidly interconnecting the second air inlet and the turbofan propulsion engine to provide air outside of the boundary layer to the core and compressor of the turbofan engine to maintain engine efficiency.
