Title: Corporate Full Scale Wooden Plane Build: Horten-IX
Post by: ujjwaana on March 19, 2012, 02:39:26 AM
The Old fellas in Northorp re-creating the German WW-II era Flying Wing made of Wood. It was allegedly the the inspiration for the American B-2 bomber and mother of all Flying Wings.

Sadly the narration is in German and this is the 2nd part of 4 series video, which shows the build process

If You have the time, do satrt from the First video and see it throughout

I am kind of smitten with the entire Horten family of plane and starting with the smallest of family, the 1.5M Horten micro Elli. Plan to build the bigger sisters as the life goes on.
