Abstract
An aircraft has an empennage and a folding system. The folding system has aerofoils and node bodies which are connected to one another. The aerofoils have at least two nose-side aerofoils and at least two tail-side aerofoils, of which one of the nose-side aerofoils and one of the tail-side aerofoils are port-side aerofoils and one of the nose-side aerofoils and one of the tail-side aerofoils are starboard-side aerofoils. The node bodies have fuselage-side node bodies and outer node bodies. The nose-side aerofoils and tail-side aerofoils are each articulated at a first end to an associated fuselage-side node body, and the nose-side aerofoils and tail-side aerofoils are each articulated at a second end to an outer node body. The tail-side node bodies are displaceable at least partially along an associated translation axis. The folding system functions as the empennage during flight.
