ABSTRACT:
A vertical take-off and landing aircraft has an airframe body that defines a loop-shaped path of travel for a plurality of movably-mounted wings that are transversely disposed relative to a longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The airframe body has two side frames that are transversely spaced apart in parallel relation to one another and interconnected by a pair of fixed wings that do not follow the path of travel of the movably-mounted wings. A passenger compartment is positioned between the two side frames and within the loop traveled by the movably mounted wings.
