    in what way??they didnt invent the turbo jet engine,and newton was english and bernoulii was well bernoulli lol,there are many rumours about nazi technology like the ufo which in theory is one big gyroscope rotating and using its own weight rotation as propulsion but other than tht i beg to differ and very few of these ideas ever came off the drawing board.

  • I like how they ...

    I like how they just "hang the airplane on a hook" at the end, like it was a garden tool in the shed or the garage. Honestly, though, that looks REALLY dangerous. If the engine loses power, or if the airplane loses balance during the hovering mode, the pilot would likely die. And ejection would be straight out sideways, at an altitude of about 50ft.

    Wow. They should nickname that thing the Bee, or the Wasp. It's so dinky, look how small it is; still very powerful to be able to hover vertically. Pretty cool.
