An aircraft (1) comprising: a fuselage (2), opposing wings (3, 4) either side of the fuselage (2), each wing (3, 4) supports at least one tangential flow rotor (5) and has a rotational axis. At least one tail section (3A) is disposed on each wing (3, 4) for forming a wing trailing edge. The tail sections (3A) are moveable about the, or each, rotor axis (X) relative to the fuselage (2) so as to provide, in use of said aircraft (1), variable thrust forces, whereby in use, movement of the or each tail section (3A) controls the flight of the aircraft (1). Lift is generated by way of a shroud (12) which forms an extension to the tail section (3A) curved surface or cowl to jointly cover a proportion of the circumference of the rotor. Ideally the shroud (12) and tail section curved surfaces create a vortex chamber generally within the rotor. An alternative embodiment includes a vertical axis fan (6) is provided on the fuselage (2) to adjust aircraft "pitch".
