X-48B

Hello Everyone!

Today's topic is one of Boeing's experimental planes, the X-48B and X-48C. It is a unmanned plane that is used to test blended wing body aircraft 

This plane is shaped like a Manta Ray. (this is just a thought, i put it here)

The X-48B is a joint co-operation between Boeing and NASA, to create greener and quieter aircraft for future use. 

One of the differences between the X-48b and the X-48C is that one has a trio of engines and one has dual engines

this beauty right here is a NASA-Boeing x-48B. designed to hold more passengers than current 700-series aircraft, therefore less flights, less fuel consumed etc. 

green technology is awesome!
