Abstract
After 20 years of government, industry, and university research and development efforts, the reality of fly-by-light production aircraft is within sight. An overview is presented of the driving factors which make fly-by-light systems viable, and the philosophy and contributions of Douglas Aircraft Company are reviewed.
