Aircraft and propulsion system for an aircraft, and operating method

摘要

The invention relates to a propulsion system for aircraft, especially for high-flying and long-distance flying unmanned aircraft, to the aircraft itself and to a method for controlling aircraft. Said propulsion system has a first jet turbine engine and a second jet turbine engine (22, 24). The invention also provides that the first jet turbine engine is a turbine engine (22) and the second jet turbine engine is an airscrew turbine engine (24). Said airscrew turbine engine (24) remains non-operational at least during the process for starting the aircraft (10).
