The invention provides an aircraft and a landing method thereof. The aircraft comprises a fuselage and wings, wherein the fuselage comprises a global positioning system, a downward-looking camera, a local navigation module and a flight controller; the global positioning system is used for providing present coordinates of the aircraft for the flight controller; the downward-looking camera is used for imaging by using visible light and near-infrared ray simultaneously; the flight controller is used for motion control of the aircraft; the local navigation module is used for starting the downward-looking camera when the aircraft reaches a position above coordinates of a predetermined destination under guidance of the global positioning system, using the downward-looking camera to capture a positioning identifier and obtaining position and distance information between the aircraft and the positioning identifier so as to provide accurate positioning information for the flight controller, therefore, the flight controller can control the aircraft to fly to the positioning identifier and the aircraft does not hover until the distance between the aircraft and the positioning identifier is within a preset capture distance range; the aircraft is captured after the distance between the aircraft and the positioning identifier is within the preset capture distance range and the aircraft hovers. The landing method which is simple and safe and does not require flat ground is provided by the invention and is suitable for being used outdoors.
