Disclosed is an aircraft having ducted fans inside ducts that are incorporated into an aircraft body design to configure an undercambered bottom. Two forward ducts intake above the body (creating lift) and expel air downward and slightly outward at the front of the craft. Two rear ducts also intake above the body, but expel air downwardly and outwardly at the rear of the craft. The overall volume and footprint for the craft enables use in existing parking and other environmental structures normally used to accommodate automobiles.
