It may result in triggering convection, gravity waves, or tend to return to its original level causing standing waves. For aircrafts, it may cause the wind to change its direction; changing the lift and drag, and the aircrafts may be unstable due to the strong updrafts and downdrafts. Air travel becomes more complicated than usual when a large storm-front is formed somewhere in the world. Air routes are closed, holding patterns are established, flights get delayed and some are unfortunately cancelled. Hurricanes present a massive problem if they are standing between you and your destination, even if the area, they affect, is relatively small. Hurricanes, however, are a beast of the whole nature. Hurricanes are massive, spanning hundreds or thousands of miles and affecting flights on a regional scale. On the other hand, a thunderstorm/tornado develops and moves through an area quickly, the effects of a hurricane extends for days. This affects air traffic and may cause it to stop for several days. Considering the previous challenges, this paper investigates the flight performance of the AIRBUS BELUGA-XL, one of the largest transport aircrafts based on the AIRBUS A330-200 Freighter airliner. Also, a bio-inspired modification of the aircraft wings was applied based on the tubercles of the humpback whale fins.
