At supersonic speeds the shape and dimensions of the fuselage have a strong effect on the aircraft drag. ... The figure below shows a Aerospatiale design for the fuselage of a Mach 2.0 transport (Avion de Transport Supersonique Futur, ATSF). Note that the diameter and seat layout is similar to the MD-80, but the fuselage is...
