Abstract
An aircraft that enables an efficient and safe transition from hovering to level-flight. The aircraft according to the present invention includes a lift generating part, a thrust generating part capable of flying and hovering, a connecting part that displaceably connects the lift generating part and the thrust generating part so that the lift generating part can maintain a positive angle of attack with respect to the flying direction at least at the time of ascending. The lift generating part is a wing part having a main surface, and at least at the time of hovering, a propulsion direction by the thrust generating part is along a direction obliquely intersecting the vertical direction. At least at the time of hovering, the propulsion direction and the main surface form an obtuse angle. At least at the time of hovering, the propulsion direction is along the vertical direction.
