An aircraft (10) having a vertical takeoff and landing fight mode and a forward flight mode. The aircraft (10) includes an airframe (12) and a versatile propulsion system attached to the airframe (12). The versatile propulsion system includes a plurality of propulsion assemblies (26a-d). A flight control system (40) is operable to independently control the propulsion assemblies (26a-d). The propulsion assemblies (26a-d) are interchangeably attachable to the airframe (12) such that the aircraft (10) has a liquid fuel flight mode and an electric flight mode. In the liquid fuel flight mode, energy is provided to each of the propulsion assemblies (26a-d) from a liquid fuel. In the electric flight mode, energy is provided to each of the propulsion assemblies (26a-d) from an electric power source.
