Aircraft having cab portions with integrated windshields are disclosed. The cab portion can include a rounded nose and a windshield positioned above and aft of a forward extremity of the rounded nose. A contour of the cab portion extending from the nose over the windshield aft of the nose can have a generally continuously smooth, unkinked shape. In particular embodiments, the portion of the contour corresponding to the windshield can be convex when viewed from a position external to the cab portion, and the shape of the windshield can form a portion of a conical surface.
