Abstract: An aircraft includes a fuselage carrying a nacelle of the aircraft offset relative to a wing of the aircraft. The nacelle forms an air inlet fairing of a propulsion assembly. The nacelle includes a lower wall and an upper wall delimiting together a height of the nacelle. The lower wall includes an air inlet edge being contiguous with a trailing edge of the wing.

Abstract: A twin-flow, double body turbojet includes a fan that is positioned upstream from a gas generator and delimits primary and secondary flows. The gas generator is traversed by the primary flow and includes a low-pressure compressor, a high-pressure compressor, a combustion chamber, a high-pressure turbine and a low-pressure turbine. The low-pressure turbine is linked to the low-pressure compressor by a low-pressure rotating shaft, and the high-pressure turbine is linked to the high-pressure compressor by a high-pressure rotating shaft. The turbojet has an electric motor for injecting mechanical power into at least one of the rotating shafts. The turbojet also has a device for removing power from at least one of the rotating shafts and transforming the excess power into electrical energy. An electric storage means is positioned between the device for removing power and the electric motor.

Abstract: A module (4) for an aircraft turbomachine comprises an assembly of constant-volume combustion chambers, and including a first sub-assembly of first chambers succeeding each other along a given sense (76) and forming series of chambers (S1), and within each series (S1), a first ignition chamber (C1.1) located at one of both circumferential ends of the series is defined, the first ignition chamber (C1.1) being connected to the first directly consecutive chamber (C1.2) along the given sense (76) so as to supply the same with exhaust gases, and so forth up to the first chamber (C1.3) located at the other circumferential end of the series. In addition, a control device (46) is configured such that for all the first ignition chambers (C1.1), diametrically opposite two by two, the combustion cycles are simultaneously initiated. Finally, a second sub-assembly comprising second combustion chambers (C2.1-C2.3) is also provided.

Abstract: A device for generating a return force for a control stick that is movable from a neutral position along a travel path, includes a mechanical connection member connecting the stick to a resilient return member for returning the stick towards the neutral position. The mechanical connection member and the resilient return member produce, over a first portion of the travel path, a first strength of return force and, over a second portion of the travel path, a second strength of return force. A transmission part is mechanically connected to the stick so that any stick movement along the second portion corresponds to turning movement of the transmission part, and so that the return force to the stick is transmitted to the stick positioned in the second portion.
