The fuselage length relative to the wingspan varies based on the aircraft design and its intended use. For most commercial and cargo aircraft, the fuselage is indeed longer than the wingspan to provide adequate space for passengers, cargo, and structural integrity. However, some specialized aircraft, like certain fighters or gliders, may have a shorter fuselage compared to their wingspan for aerodynamic reasons. Ultimately, the design choices depend on performance requirements and operational needs.
