The aeroplane forming the subject matter of the present invention is supported or suspended by a surface similar to the hull of a navigable vessel. It is driven from the front by one or two propellers adapted to rotate about or on a single horizontal shaft which can be inclined laterally away from the longitudinal axis of the aeroplane to steer it..

The aviators seat and the motor are suspended from about the center of this surface and maintain the desired balance. The elevating controller which can be single or double is operated by displacements of the aviators seat and the direction of the propellers is regulated by means of a steering handle.
