The THE Volksjaeger that came 60 years too late ;-)
 

Hello,

This would have been the ideal Volksjäger, wouldn't it? Economical, quick and easy to build, could be started from any bigger carrier aircraft.... OK, I forgot the armament, but I am sure a Panzerfaust would have done it ;-)

Very impressive, Roger! But, I must admit that I would have felt less nervous if the test pilot had been doing his flying over the nice flat grassy prairies. But, you work with what you have.
Thank you for that,
George

Reminded me of Wile E Coyote chasing the Road Runner! I expected him to go kapow into a mountain any second...!

Cool!!! :piliot:
Wondering, how he manages directional control.

BTW, anybody knows, which music that is?

LMFAO!!!
 

!!!

As far as directional control. -Same as birds and hang gliders -shift weight and body position -use appendages as control surfaces!

Very impressive, thanks for that clip, Roger!

The music is by Moby from his 1999 Record "Play" and it's called "Trouble so hard". It's actually an old blues recording from the forties made by Vera Hall that Moby sampled.

It's "Natural Blues" by Moby. The vocal is sampled from "Trouble So Hard" by Vera Hall (I admit I had to look that last bit up) which you can preview here: http://www.last.fm/music/vera+hall/_/Trouble+So+Hard..
