Impact of the AEA Concept<br />

Implication on <strong>Aircraft</strong> Aerodynamic<br />

Efficiency<br />

Adoption of all electric technologies could reduce the<br />

operating empty weight of the aircraft and could lead to<br />

reduction in fuel load, thrust required, maximum takeoff<br />

weight, etc.<br />

Reductions in maximum aircraft take‐off weight could<br />

reduce the wing area, which in turn could allow for<br />

reduced wing span and increased aspect ratio, thus<br />

improving the aerodynamic efficiency of the aircraft.<br />
