Abstract: An aircraft fuselage frame including a central element adapted to be located within the perimeter of the fuselage, and two lateral extensions projecting outside the perimeter of the fuselage from both sides of the central element that are a portion of a longitudinal structure of a lifting surface. The central element and the two lateral extensions are configured as an integrated piece.

Abstract: An aircraft lifting surface attached to the rear or frontal end of the aircraft fuselage with a variable sweep angle ? in an inboard part and with a constant sweep angle ?1 in an outboard part. The aircraft lifting surface can be for example a horizontal tail plane or a vertical tail plane attached to the rear end fuselage or a canard attached to the frontal end fuselage.

Abstract: An aircraft model for testing in a wind tunnel of width W including a fuselage, a truncated wing whose length L1 is less than the length L of a full scaled wing and additional components in the rear of the aircraft as, in particular, a horizontal tail plane, that produces the same downwash that arrives to the additional components as in a full scaled model. The shape of the truncated wing may be designed for having a similar lift distribution to the lift distribution of a full scaled wing along at least the maximum length L2 in the Y-axis of any component in the rear of the aircraft. The invention also relates to a method for designing the truncated wing.

Abstract: An aircraft model (17) for testing in a wind tunnel (11) of width W comprising a fuselage (21), a truncated wing (25) whose length L1 is lesser than the length L of a full scaled wing (23) and additional components in the rear aircraft as, in particular, an horizontal tail plane (29), that produces the same downwash arriving to said additional components than in a full scaled model. The shape of said truncated wing (25) may be designed for having a similar lift distribution (35) to the lift distribution (37) of a full scaled wing (23) along at least the maximum length L2 in the Y-axis of any component in the rear aircraft. The invention also relates to a method for designing said truncated wing (25).
