Abstract

A cabin space dedicated to passengers and, beneath said cabin space, an under-cabin space which extends along the longitudinal axis of said aircraft. The under-cabin space comprises, distributed along two lines parallel to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft, two sets of systems which are able to carry out functions necessary for the operation of the aircraft. The two lines of sets of systems are disposed respectively in two lateral zones of the under-cabin space which are spaced apart transversely from one another and enclose a free central zone which extends along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. This arrangement thus eliminates any technical zone from the under-cabin space, thereby facilitating the internal layout and maintenance.
