ThrustWing concept that is key to the maneuverability of Millennium Airship Product Line.
The ThrustWing will contain three modes of propulsion: the first will be forward thrust
derived from a form of a fan jet. The second is thrust required for the VTOL operation,
which presently will be a propeller system imbedded in the outer portion of the wing. The
third thrust requirement is for directional control which will be provided by a port out the
wing tip. The exact source for propulsion has not been determined. While the inboard
wing section is stationary, the outer portion will rotate to provide varying degrees of VTOL
thrust.
