Disclosed is a method for improving the performance of transport aircraft. In particular, the aircraft is provided with a rounded nose cone in front of a center of gravity of the aircraft. The rounded nose cone has an upper longitudinal surface and a lower longitudinal surface configured, respectively, to generate a lifting force and a negative lifting force and produce a resultant that is lifting and to produce an auxiliary nose-up moment. The method involves shaping the nose cone to increase the lifting resultant. This shaping is carried out-by increasing the upper longitudinal surface of the nose cone, so as to increase the lifting force, and by reducing the lower longitudinal surface of the nose cone, so as to decrease the negative lifting force.
