Abstract

A very short take-off and landing aircraft comprises an airframe including a fuselage, fixed wings having leading edge slots (S), horizontal and vertical flying control surfaces and at least one fan (X) wherein the mass flow of air from the or each fan (X) is ducted to exit from the leading edge slots (S). Air may also be ducted to slots or gaps (G) in the elevator or rudder or to jets (R, Y, P) for attitude control.
