Civil Aircraft Design Priorities: Air Quality? Climate Change? Noise? [PDF]
A variety of related questions is posed. Are the right priorities for future aircraft design being set now? New civil aircraft types could be ‘silent’, ie make much less noise than current types. They could be ‘green’, ie safeguard the environment.

Scaling trajectories in civil aircraft (1913–1997) [PDF]
Using entropy statistics we analyse scaling patterns in terms of changes in the ratios among product characteristics of 143 designs in civil aircraft. Two allegedly dominant designs, the piston propeller DC3 and the turbofan Boeing 707, are shown to have triggered a scaling trajectory at the level of the respective firms.
