@@michaelmckinnon1591 Ever check how many Veriezes,Long Ezies or other home builts if his designs were built? Check out Airventure you'll see rows of them.
Burt Rutan has overall done more for aircraft design than any other aeronautical engineer. Pronounced incorrectly in video, it's Roo-tan. Don't miss his interviews and presentations on RU-vid. They're outstanding.
Pilots say, "If it looks right, it'll fly right." Of the ten planes shown in this video none looked more wrong, and flew more badly, than the Goblin. (Why else would they give it that name?) It proved almost impossible to dock the little monstrosity in its carrier's bay, and in any case the Goblin proved unable to match current-generation fighters in free flight, let alone combat.
The first jet engine propulsion aircraft flew in 1910, and it was built and flown by Henri Coandă. So, that Caproni barrel didn't open the way for anything like that.
Propeller aircraft were reaching the limit of how high they could fly 100 years ago because the air would get thin beyond 10,000 feet. The Caproni aircraft tried to solve that problem with an air baffle in their design and in fact, this solution led to the development of jet engines.
Thenk you...The airocar I though was done by bell airspace. I know it was built and test up at bell at Niagara airport ..one of my relative lived in Tonawanda NY work at bell and worked on the projects...thank you.. stay safe..
The sad part about the Goblin flight test . When the Goblin tried to reattach to the rigging it slammed into the rigging damaging the cockpit latch and loss of control of the craft and crashed with loss of the pilot . The Old History or Discovery channel is were my information about Parasite Fighters is from .
Fortunately that’s not true. Discovery might have confused the Goblin with some other experimental aircraft, because the Goblin successfully belly landed after each test with no casualties.
Don't forget the F-105G. I've always thought it looks as if it breathed speed. And that first one? The Italian job. It reminded me of the Tube Frisbee's I played with as a child. Except for the wings, of course.
Their all cool. But I like mine much more then any of these. And its not just that its mine. But that its abilities are unlike any of our aircraft today, which are the reasons I designed this first, for search and rescue. And next, its industrial applications. And so much more. But cool video. Thanks.
With regards to the stipa-caproni. That is an idea was way a head of it's time, my i bring your attention to the mig-9 all but one of the planes that followed this concept.
1:30, it only became successful after WW2, when America got its hands off of the Amado AR E 555....Before that; the Northrop Flying Wing Project wasn't an absolute joke.
Sorry, you're half right, it's not a real aircraft, it's not an aircraft at all and it's also not a Hercules C2 Starlifter but an "A2" or "M2", C2's are primarily white. ;-)
I made a model of the XFV. Years later (I think it was in the late '70s or early '80s) I saw at sitting on the tarmac at an air show in Burbank, CA. I still have photos I took of the XFV somewhere. I also made a model of the X-3 Stiletto as well.
Funny..at 02.26...the maximum speed is 24 miles per hour😂 little slip but the video isn't bad👍 P.S. 07:28..the idea from the AD 1 is not new.. Blohm&Voss had planed in 1942 to use the so called "oblique wing" in their project BV P. 202 The Germans in WW 2 , especially Blohm & Voss, had a reputation for asymetrical plane Designs.....
Piston version of the Flying Wing had a range of 12000 miles, four times that of the B-36 Peacemaker. Who cares were whether it went 1600 miles shorter than they expected. The Avrocar was a wild-ass guess at a very bad Theory. Dornier do? Where the hell did you get that pronunciation. The X3 was designed to be capable of flying at Mach 2, which the airframe was. They however were not able to secure engines capable of pushing the aircraft that fast. I don't know who's doing the narration or if it's actually a real person, but you can't even get the name of Burt Rutan correct?
Well the good thing is that I can go back to the previous screen and hit the "Do not recommend chanel" button and I'll never see another of your videos.
Unfortunately the most amazing advanced unusual aircraft are either always hidden or destroyed due to cutting edge technology. Like imagine having a museum with all of American canada avro arrow, lockheed Martin, mcdonall Douglas, bombardier, Rockwell etc. Aircrafts experimental/ covert aircraft. Like in canada the late 1950s avro canada building the worlds best interceptor for the same or close. which ultimately destroyed the company and had the Canadian American British government forcefully scrap the highly advanced supersonic interceptors for lots of reasons no one actually knows why it was canceled weather it was because of icbms or because American superiority being challenged on its border. But they destroyed everyone that we know of and what replaced the avro arrow American f104 starfighter which was way more behind in almost all areas compared to the avro arrow. And the avro arrow engineering and speed it could of easily be rebuilt larger and turned in to a supersonic heavy bomber instead of being a between fighter reconnaissance aircraft size. even by todays standards the data that we due know about the arrow makes it a great aircraft to field even today in the 21st century
