Abstract

An aircraft having an engine, a cabin, an air conditioning system collecting the hot air from the engine, so as to treat the hot air, regulate a temperature of the hot air and send the hot air towards the cabin via a main line, an air line channeling the air leaving the cabin, and an arrangement for cooling the engine using the air thus drawn off by the air line. By drawing off the air at the outlet of the cabin, the performance of the engine is improved and the fuel consumption is reduced.
