An aircraft 100 for vertical take-off and landing comprises a wing arrangement 110 coupled to a fuselage 101 such that the wing arrangement 110 is tiltable around a longitudinal wing axis. The wing arrangement 110 is adapted in such a way that, in a fixed-wing flight mode, the wing arrangement 110 does not rotate around the fuselage 101. The wing arrangement 110 is further adapted in such a way that, in a hover flight mode, the wing arrangement 110 is tilted around the longitudinal wing axis with respect to its orientations in the fixed-wing flight mode and that the wing arrangement 110 rotates around the fuselage 101. An engine 120 comprises a drive shaft 121 with an engine rotary axis 122 and a propeller unit 130 which is mounted to a wing. The propeller comprises blades that are hollow with spars and may be filled with a foam material.
