Abstract: Medium haul commercial aircrafts are used by airliners for medium range flights which includes domestic and international routes, below 4000 km but not less than 1500 km. These are widely used type of aircrafts for airliners. It is a very challenging process to design such an aircraft and there are a lot of processes and parameters which need to be assessed before finalizing a design. The aircraft is designed to seat a hundred passengers and one of the main requirements of such medium haul aircrafts is that they are designed to carry the heavy loads for longer durations and yet provide a smooth flying experience. The design aspects include the selection of airfoil and engines. The airfoil selected has high lift capabilities and has a gentle stall quality providing for a perfect fit for this category of aircraft and the fuselage has been analysed in order to withstand the various aerodynamic forces that the aircraft might endure during flight. The design of the Wing was performed on CATIA V5,the design of the fuselage was performed on SOLIDWORKS Inc. and the analysis of the wing and fuselage were performed on ANSYS R19.2(Student Version).The design is said to provide better lift capabilities with the help of the airfoil chosen which could provide for a better performance on modern day aircrafts.
