How JetZero Outsmarted Boeing and Airbus With a Radical Plane Design
What if the next jetliner you board doesn’t really have a fuselage at all—just one sweeping, manta-ray wing that carries everything inside it? Starting in March 2024, JetZero’s twelve-percent-scale Pathfinder demonstrator began taxi and flight tests across the baked concrete of Edwards Air Force Base, clearing the way for a full-scale blended-wing rollout targeted for 2027. No tube. No tail cone. Just a single, billowing surface that looked more B-2 bomber than Boeing 737. The company behind it—JetZero—says this radical shape can slash fuel burn by up to fifty percent. That would gut one of the airline industry’s biggest expenses and punch a hole in aviation’s carbon ledger. But how did this audacious idea get breathing room in an industry dominated by two mega-manufacturers, and why are Boeing and Airbus suddenly scrambling to react?
