ABSTRACT:
A helicopter aircraft with an upper hollow center circular plenum in gaseous communication with a plurality of hollow hinged attached rotor blades. Below the plenum and in gaseous communication with it are two fan jet engines whose gaseous output can be inputted to the plenum and their attached hollow rotor blades through a operator controlled valve system. This same valve system can be adjusted to completely or partially by-pass the plenum and discharge the jet engines' gas to a common rear rudder located on the aircraft's to provide directional control to the aircraft when in flight. The plenum is shaped lenticular in cross section similar to an airplane wing to provide a lifting body when the helicopter is in forward flight.
