طراحی عجیب هواپیمای بدون سقف در فرانسه + عکس

One of the pleasures of flying may be admiring the world below, but that experience could be significantly altered in future if plans for the development of a windowless jet come to fruition,

French design agency Technicon Design has released renderings showing its proposed Ixion Windowless Jet, a private jet that is completely devoid of windows in its fuselage. In their place, screens would line the interior of the cabin, displaying footage of the panoramas outside. Should the aircraft be flying through a tedious setting, passengers could request that the scenes on display be changed to show film footage, video conferencing interfaces or various other forms of imagery.

Technicon Design states that removing windows from aircrafts will reduce their weight, thus reducing fuel and maintenance costs and giving designers greater opportunities to enhance and beautify their interiors.

There are no firm plans to built their proposed jet as yet, but with other firms similarly enthusiastic about the development of windowless planes their development might just be a matter of time.

US-based engineering firm Spike Aerospace is aiming to launch commercial supersonic (Mach 1.6-1.8) flights in 2018 and expects its aircraft will be able to fly from London to New York in less than four hours. The company expects the aircraft to be built without windows for much the same reasons as those given by Technicon Design. Spike Aerospace planes, too, would feature thin screens that could display surrounding vistas or screen films and work presentations.
