New EcoJet technology aeroplane

New EcoJet aeroplane



Also on display is an innovative easyJet aeroplane model. Featuring open rotor engines, the plane is designed to reduce carbon emissions by 25 percent. Situated at the back of the aircraft, the open rotor engine is operated by fan blades which cut through the open air and use less fuel. Other features include swept forward wings which make the aircraft more aerodynamic. It would also be made from lighter materials such as carbon fibre composites. This style of aeroplane could be in use by 2016.
