Claim 0:
1. An aircraft, comprising:
a fuselage comprising a plurality of fixed wings, a nose, and a rear;
a blended wing body comprising a continuous curvilinear geometry between each wing of the plurality of fixed wings and the nose of the aircraft;
at least one main engine housed within a nacelle, wherein the nacelle is disposed on a top portion of the fuselage, the at least one main engine configured to provide a first thrust component to the aircraft in a first airstream having a first velocity, wherein the at least one main engine comprises a forward end and an aft end;
an impingement area located at the front end of the nacelle, wherein the impingement area is configured to generate a second airstream vortex as a function of the first airstream interacting with the impingement area;
at least one recovery engine to provide a second thrust component to the aircraft in the second airstream vortex having a second velocity less than the first velocity, wherein the at least one recovery engine is fully disposed below the surface of the fuselage, wherein the at least one recovery engine has a forward end and an aft end, wherein the forward end of the at least one recovery engine is located between the aft end of the at least one main engine and the rear of the fuselage.
