Pod and boom construction... (basically having a main fuselauge - including the engine - and then having a relatively narrow rear fuselage that just supports the Empennage). Different people find different designs charming. For some reason I'm one of the ones who finds this engineering elegant in its apparent simplicity. But I was also sort-of making fun of the common themes in aircraft I like. There are a lot of much better reasons to find the TS-11 or Mi-2 charming aircraft (other than the pod-and-boom layout). 2
