The Horton flying wings are one thing above all: legendary aircraft that fly without fuselage and tail unit. With the development of the Ho 229, the Horton brothers invented design principles, that were far ahead of their time. The H IXV1 first flew in March 1944 as a non-motorized glider - however, the concept did not peak until the end of the last century.
The authors provide a comprehensive overview of the development and testing of the Horton Ho 229. Impressive graphics and construction drawings as well as impressive picture material make the book a standard work in the contemporary aviation program.
180 pictures (b/w pictures, b/w line drawings).
