ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The aircraft comprises a rotor with a verti- cal axis arranged in a housing for generating a lift ex- ceeding the weight of the aircraft. The housing is essen- tially shaped as a circular wing. First air guiding means are provided for controlling the air stream generated by the rotor, by means of which the position of the aircraft can be controlled in hovering flight. From hovering flight, the aircraft can be moved into a cruise flight, where the lift of the aircraft is generated aerodynami- cally by the circular wing of the housing and its forward thrust by a propeller. For the transition between hover- ing flight and cruise flight, second air guiding means are provided for controlling the pitch of the aircraft. These second air guiding means are arranged outside a zone defined by the air stream of the rotor. - 23 -
