Rotary electric machine having a stator core formed with stacked thin sheets and aircraft using the rotary electric machine core

This rotary electric machine includes two movable parts which are placed with a stator core interposed therebetween and rotate about an identical rotary shaft. At least part of the stator core is formed by stacking thin sheets in a rotation direction of the two movable parts. The stator core has, at both ends, stator core retention portions extended in a direction parallel to surfaces thereof opposed to the two movable parts and perpendicular to the rotation direction of the movable parts. Retention surfaces of the stator core retention portions at both ends are respectively fixed by retention members. The retention surfaces of the stator core retention portions at both ends are formed to face toward each other.
