Subject: WWII German planes
Just bumped into the Luft '46 site while looking through VTOL hits. http://www.luft46.com/ It's sorta OT but the site deals with some of theR&D designs at the end of WWII. There's some great computer art and information on aircraft that look more 40's sci fi then actual designs but were actual ideas at the time. Anyone interested in neat and exlectic aircraft should pop in a check it out.

It's funny, The more I look at the stuff the Germans were working on from planes to missiles to tanks, the more I realise how much these designes have been used as the basis for popular sci-fi ever since. In the case of the planes - looking at the designs I realise that almost ever popular "spacefighter" design has its roots there. Eli > Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2001 22:36:50 -0700
