    摘要: The present invention relates to an aircraft (10), comprising a fuselage (12), at least one pair of wings (14, 16) and a battery system, wherein the battery system comprises at least one battery pack (24), each battery pack (24) comprising a number of individual battery modules (26), which are directly or indirectly coupled to one another. The at least one battery pack (24) can be disposed between an inner structural wall (20) defining an interior space (18) of the fuselage (12) and an outer fairing wall (22) of the fuselage (12). The fuselage (12) can be provided with a rack mounting mechanism (40) comprising a number of mounting brackets (42), each for exchangeably mounting one of the battery modules (26) to the aircraft (10). Each of the battery packs (24) can be a virtual battery pack (24), which is obtained by electrically connecting a predetermined number of the battery modules (26).
