As cool as a six engine Sunderland would be, this sucks.

 

[CATCH 22]

I went back and had a relook at this 6-bladed wonder as there was something off-putting about it and then it hit me......no red arrows

​

Great idea to make some substantial additions to the RAC (Red Arrow Conspiracy), Geo! Kudos!
What strikes me more though is the pilot, seating in a kind of a basket coming out of the fuselage, probably for better visibility. And he's a giant of course , touching the ground with his feet and giving the plane more power during take off probably. Can't see what's in front of him (no dials, no buttons) but that's too much for one day. I need a rest!

It's like the million monkeys with typewriters theory.

Those are Enigma typewriters and no two have the same key.

I thought that it was like some of the CRAP B-17's and B-24's - three one side and one on the other.

So, this is supposed to be Short's version of the BV238, then?

Bro. The almost Cold War turboprop looking engines and the almost literaly duck bill nose. This is wild.

And so it goes on... In fact this one is nowhere near as bad as some of the other garbage I've seen here recently.

That image is surprisingly close to the actual Me163S trainer (converted A and B prototypes).

Horses for courses I guess: I thought it was idiotic.

If they were trying for the A series Hs129, I'd almost give them a "nice try" award:

The Japanese had similar plans for the M8XY, but time ran out before they could be built.

Tis a fine line between 'authentic' and 'moron'.

The interesting thing about the Me163S' second canopy, is that it came from the Me309/Me262.

The second cockpit makes it look completely odd-ball, but then again, the Spitfire twin cockpit trainer wasn't going to win any beauty contests either...

Agreed. The back-seater must be sitting on the rocket motor ........ not a job I'd want .... lol

The Me163S was unpowered.

The Me163S was unpowered.

So .... the 'S' in Me163S was for 'Slow'? (I know, I know, in German it would be 'Me163L, for langsam...)

Could be Schneckengeschwindigkeit - snail's pace.

 

[GrauGeist]

The "S" stood for "Schulflugzeug".

I know, not too exciting or mysterious, but there it is.
