The AWWA Sky Whale – a rather wonderful concept for a passenger airliner envisioned by Spanish industrial designer Oscar Viñals.

The plane – which can seat 755 passengers on three decks –  has a blended wing design to reduce drag, emissions and fuel consumption with internal turbines generating electric power for the hybrid engines. The wings rotate up to 45 degrees to assist manoeuvring.

We want it to be real. You want it to be real.

The Beluga Airbus can’t be the only whale in the sky.
