Preliminary Research Aerodynamic Design to Lower Drag, or Prandtl-D1, will be displayed in an upcoming Innovations Gallery at the National Air and Space Museum, the Smithsonian Institute. The aircraft, which flew from NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in California, uses a method of aircraft design that introduces a twist that results in a more efficient wing.
