Re: Unknown Saenger Project
Dear Ed,

Lots of math in this one. If one wades through to the testing, it does tell a little bit about the testing of the Lorin duct first on trucks, then supposedly towed aircraft, and finally on Do 17 and Do 217 aircraft. I think the Lorin ducts in these Do 17/217 tests tended to push the aircraft faster than they were designed to go, thus the final proposal for an aircraft specifically designed around the Lorin duct.

Regards,
Richard
