An aircraft comprising an engine or engines configured to force exhaust gases into avoid or cavity underneath the aircraft wherein the aircraft is shaped to create the void. The hot exhaust gases may mix with incoming cool air to avoid damage to the aircraft skin of the void. The aircraft may be shaped such that any exhaust gas/air mix tends to escape downwards and towards the rear. The exhaust gas may provide lift. The aircraft fuselage may form an inverted C shape in cross section wherein side portions of the fuselage extend downwards to create the void.
