When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

this is a great pic !
I was able to see the prototype (2 engine) 1942 wing in person in Chino in 2013. Unfortunataly it was lost with the pilot last year...very sad. impressive plane and rather small. looked like a dwarf compared to those other planes with huge radial front engines and full fuselage.

  Didn't the Nazis have something like that except with jet engines?

yes both gliders and jet powered. the Horten Brothers designed those.
Flying wings are really pretty. The Northrop P9 was an incredibly nice one. it was much lower than a conventional plane, and when you walked bye, you pretty much looked at the section of the wing in eye height. also the tricycle landing gear put the airframe pretty much horizontal to the ground and so the wing looked extremely slim and small. It's painful to think about the plane having crashed and the pilot killed.

this is what I am talking about. Look at how low the wing stood in comparison to the biplane or the Curtiss XP42 fighter canopy and tail.
The N9M flying wing was one of the prettiest and most fascinating planes I ever witnessed in person.

  Looks like the cast from Hot Rods to Hell. One of my favorite cheeseball movies from the 60's.
