The invention provides an aircraft for transporting passengers and cargo able to efficiently handle ground operations for loading/unloading cargo and embarking/disembarking passengers at the same time. The lifting structure of the aircraft is formed by a back-swept wing and a fore-plane, the back-swept wing including winglets having a length L allowing them to act as vertical stabilizers. The propulsion system is mounted aft of the centre of gravity of the aircraft and the tailcone of the fuselage is configured to act as a rear access door and as a pressure barrier.
