Aircraft with full flight capability are connected to structural cables by an electrically powered drive element traveling inside the structural cables. Electricity distribution cables, part of a power distribution grid, connect to the structural cable along its length and provide power to the drive element. A linear series of annular electromagnets in the structural cable encircle a linear array of circular electromagnets in the drive element. A centralized computer controls a constantly changing phase shift in the electromagnets along the structural cable causing the drive element electromagnets to move through the structural cable without contacting the structural cable. The aircraft is connected by cables or rods to the drive elements. Retractable delta wings, an airfoil body, and a controlled angle of attack create lift maintaining the aircraft in flight as the drive element moves through the structural cable. An onboard computer in communication with the central computer controls the drive element electromagnets, the lift creating elements, trim tabs on vertical and horizontal stabilizers, and a number of spoilers to maintain a precise flight path. Fiber optic cables, part of a communication network grid, are attached along the length of the structural cable in communication with an onboard long distance communication system. The structural cables, fiber optic cables, and electricity distribution cables all connect to buildings providing a door-to-door transportation, communication, and nationwide power distribution system. This smart transportation system of the twenty-first century is known as the Aerial SmarTrans (TM). This is the high tech vehicle that will construct and travel the information super highway, thus invigorating and renewing American civilization. It will give the American people great pleasure and pride to pay and ride smart transportation for the next century.
