Abstract
A vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft is configured with a front set of propellers mounted to a front wing and an aft set of propellers mounted to an aft wing wherein the propellers may be repositioned by rotating them around a front thrust vectoring axis and an aft thrust vectoring axis respectively. The positioning of the propellers with respect to the thrust vectoring axes and the positioning of the thrust vectoring axes with respect to the upper and lower limits of the passenger compartment ensure that, as the propellers are rotated from a vertical thrust position to a horizontal thrust position, the plane of rotation of the propellers never intersects with the portion of the passenger compartment where a failure of propeller components could result in debris penetrating the passenger compartment and causing injury.
