Abstract
An aircraft (12) adapted for flight in helicopter mode with its longitudinal axis oriented generally vertically and in airplane mode with its longitudinal axis oriented generally horizontally is provided with the capability of launching and landing with the tail end (202) directed skyward. The invention also includes improvements to the controllability and efficiency of aircraft (12) in helicopter mode provided by the stabilizer wings (24, 26, 28) and relative rotation of the fuselage section (14) about the aircract's longitudinal axis. The aircraft (12) may have an elongate boom (83) for engagement with a base structure (81). The base structure (81) may be attached to a building, a trailer transporter, a ship or some other structure.
