ABSTRACT:
An aircraft includes an aircraft body portion 10, a wing portion 14 attached to the body portion by means of an intermediate portion 15 whose thickness diminishes outboard of the body portion to blend with the wing portion. The intermediate portion 15 comprises upper and lower surfaces diverging rearwardly from a leading region to a region of maximum divergence. The aft portion of the intermediate region is cut away to receive propulsion jet outlet 16 which is shaped to be within a rearward projection of the region of maximum divergence of the intermediate portion. The propulsion outlet jet 16 may be directed downwardly to generate a lift component.
