A light aircraft has a fuselage 10 with fore and aft slopes, increasing in height towards the centre of the fuselage to form a duel wedge shape. The fuselage slopes configured to direct airflow over the surface to provide lift to the aircraft, the surface smooth to minimise drag. Side panels (fig.2,20) of the fuselage may extend beyond the aft fuselage forming a tail (fig.3,30), the fuselage may have a pair of wings (fig.3,40), and L-shaped flaps (fig.3,50) attached to either end of the fuselage. The side panels morph to act as rudders, and at least one of the fuselage, tail, wings or flaps has two or more morph points actuated by controlled electrical, pneumatic, magnetic or hydraulic systems to deform providing additional lift and/or steering. Internal and external surface of the aircraft may be coated in a layers (fig.7,130,130’) containing a mesh of doped/conductive graphene or CNT, the layers charged with opposite polarity to attract one another and attach to the aircraft, and layers peeled back to enable doors and hatches to open. A magnetic fluid or gel (fig.7,140) is inserted between the layers at either side of openings to seal them.
