The invention provides a drainage mast (13) able to drain effectively the liquid contained in the compartment (11) of an aircraft when the pressure within the compartment is lesser than the outside pressure without using any pressure control active device and without causing any significant perturbation to the aerodynamic behavior of the aircraft. The drainage mast (13) is configured with a cross section area decreasing from its entry section to the compartment to its outlet section and is disposed at an acute angle ± relative to the compartment (11) in the airflow direction. Their entry and outlet sections have two perpendicular symmetry axes of different length (31, 23 and 25, 27), the entry section is arranged with its longer axis of symmetry (21) substantially parallel to the airflow direction. The drainage mast (13) has a symmetrical configuration with respect to a plane substantially perpendicular to the fuselage envelope passing through the longer axis of symmetry (21) of the entry section.
