Re: Horten 229 "Operation Paperclip"

Officially, only one example exists in an unassembled state. However, this book:

http://www.amazon.com/Horten-Ho-229-.../dp/1903223660


shows photographic proof of the assembly of at least one example shortly after the war.

Hi Gruppe,

Buying a copy of this book when it first came out looks like one of the best investments in the current economic climate ;-) ($40.00 --> $634.50!!!)

@Matt, what kind of information are you looking for? I don't see a direct link between the Ho 229 and "Operation Paperclip".
