A High Altitude Pseudo Satellite (HAPS) aircraft is disclosed, the aircraft including at least one aeroelastic span loaded fixed wing, an aspect ratio greater than 15 and wing loading less than 6 kg/m2, where the at least one wing has a plurality of spoilers distributed across the span of the wing and each spoiler being chordwise located adjacent the centre of pressure of the wing. The HAPS aircraft further includes a control system for controlling the spoilers, sensors which allow at least one of the quantity or quantities selected from the group comprising the amount of lift at points or regions along the wing span the pitch and roll at points or regions along the wing span, the bending and torsional strain at points or regions along the wing span, or the net speed and roll and pitch angle of the wing to be determined by the control system, and the spoiler being activatable to reduce the lift experienced by the wing in the location of the spoiler in response to the quantities determined by control system.
