• Fuselage
The fuselage (from the French fuselé "spindle-shaped") is an aircraft's main body section that holds crew and passengers or cargo. In single-engine aircraft it will usually contain an engine, although in some amphibious aircraft the single engine is mounted on a pylon attached to the fuselage which in turn is used as a floating hull. The fuselage also serves to position control and stabilization surfaces in specific relationships to lifting surfaces, required for aircraft stability and maneuverability.
• Wing configuration
Many different styles and arrangements of wings have and are used on heavier-than-air aircraft, and some lighter than air aircraft also have wings. The common wing configuration types have included monoplanes which has one wing each side, biplane which have 4 wings.
