Here is what caught my eye about Operation paperclip... three men..
1. Siegfried Knemeyer - Part of the Horton Brothers team..
2. Alexander Martin Lippisch - Father of Delta wings - also ME-163 Komet
3.Woldemar Voigt (designer of Messerschmitt P.1101)
So this gets interesting as I dig deeper... Oh man this is driving me bonkers - I wonder if Freewing is doing the ME-163 since Durafly stop production of theirs?
Just let me fly so I may be free

I love the guessing game even though im zero for four. I think from one of alphas 1st podcast (rc afterhours) he said a horten 229 was a rejected idea. I going with an 70/80mm f 106. Lippisch's delta work. 106 long service life. Much more of a success than the 102. As for a 64mm i dont think so because its not a high or mid wing. Alpha said they like high/mid wing 64s so you have something to hold. I also remember the next 64mm was going to be european. A B58 would be incredible but doesnt seem at all likely. But please o lord...let it be a hustler.Still flying P.15, avanti(#2), mig 21, yak 130 70mm(#2), f35, f9f panther, a10 64mm, F8 crusader/ PA ultimate amr /HK skipper, durafly dh vampire, p 51,spit mk24, corsair, flybeam/ BH f86 50mm, deltawing 50mm/ HH su 26 mm,umx pitts,umx sbach, blade nano cp s,blade 450x, inductrix 200, inductrix pro, umx yak 54,umx f27 fpv/ electrifly 4s L39/ flyzone beaver/ volantix asw 28, /dynam B26

I built a rubber powered model of this and it flew fine. would be interesting, flying wing, twin, push-pull. WHO KNOWS!!!!!! I'm in.......Just let me fly so I may be free
