What shapes are defined as being aerodynamic superior to others for the fuselage of a aircraft ???
I see long and skinny and tall and fat and just plan fat !! what has one got over the other !!
On small amphibious planes things planted along the sides that look as aerodynamic as a concrete brick !
The older concepts of aero shapes have changed to more modern ideas and the stealth air crafts shapes are quite strange ! I do realise speed plays a huge part in all this !!
