Wake Turbulence Vortices Use in Aerodynamic Aircraft Designs

We know of the tremendous amount of wake turbulence high wing loading swept wing aircraft create at high angles of attack. This intense airflow creation should be used with additional concave airfoils to push up on such surfaces. Further multiple swept mid wing gates similar to winglets should be deflecting airflow to these surfaces which are attached to these mid wing vertical gate like winglets. Additional a waved shape upper wing with a forward sweep should be the design of choice. In fact several forward swept wings should be attached one each to every mid wing gate like winglet.
A revolutionary aircraft design of this type made out of the newest materials using attributes know to modern aircraft in addition to this concept could prove very effective in increasing efficiency and lift thru the extra deflection properties of the vortex airflows. The upper wing with proper angle of attack would create and incredible addition and allow for decreased wingspans and thus less drag. Vortex air forced up at the upper swept wings would deflect air under it. Some of this vortex air could also be forced through jet engines or pusher props for increased power plant efficiency also.
It is time to look at other aircraft designs and test these designs, revolutionary concepts, which are a complete departure from previous models in aerospace designs. We must experiment with such airflows of aircraft and lighter materials to create safer, more efficient and smaller aircraft for humans. Think on this one.
