摘要: A vertical takeoff and landing aircraft having a fuselage with three wings six synchronously tilt-able propulsion units, each one mounted above, below, or on half of the aforementioned wings. The units are for flight, horizontal forward flight. placed such that rear wing is above middle which front wing. placement relative to center gravity about axis inherently assures continued stability in flight mode, following loss thrust from any unit. viewing front, units' wake does not materially disturb unit its rear. When engine driven propellers rotors utilized, flapped panels attached outboard and/or rearward provide yaw control during
