The main aim is to investigate the feasibility of conceptually modifying an existing kerosene aircraft to a LH2 powered version which is capable to fulfil the route between London and New York with a stop at Iceland. This paper also aims to find out which is more economic for this route, the modified version with inevitable modifications or the one with relatively more modifications?
