I don't know if there is an official answer, but I would say that a flying
wing has no discernible fuselage.

A fuselage that is shaped to provide lift might be a sticky call though.

What is the difference between a flying wing and a tailless airplane? Is
there a difference? Just wondering after reading the post about the
monarch glider a few weeks ago. Where would an ME-163 be classified.
Does an F-106 or B-58 delta wing count as a tailless airplane?

Thanks
