Burt Rutan has overall done more for aircraft design than any other aeronautical engineer. Pronounced incorrectly in video, it's Roo-tan. Don't miss his interviews and presentations on TH-cam. They're outstanding.
@@michaelmckinnon1591 Ever check how many Veriezes,Long Ezies or other home builts if his designs were built? Check out Airventure you'll see rows of them.
The first jet engine propulsion aircraft flew in 1910, and it was built and flown by Henri Coandă. So, that Caproni barrel didn't open the way for anything like that.
Pilots say, "If it looks right, it'll fly right." Of the ten planes shown in this video none looked more wrong, and flew more badly, than the Goblin. (Why else would they give it that name?) It proved almost impossible to dock the little monstrosity in its carrier's bay, and in any case the Goblin proved unable to match current-generation fighters in free flight, let alone combat.
Thenk you...The airocar I though was done by bell airspace. I know it was built and test up at bell at Niagara airport ..one of my relative lived in Tonawanda NY work at bell and worked on the projects...thank you.. stay safe..
Propeller aircraft were reaching the limit of how high they could fly 100 years ago because the air would get thin beyond 10,000 feet. The Caproni aircraft tried to solve that problem with an air baffle in their design and in fact, this solution led to the development of jet engines.
The sad part about the Goblin flight test . When the Goblin tried to reattach to the rigging it slammed into the rigging damaging the cockpit latch and loss of control of the craft and crashed with loss of the pilot . The Old History or Discovery channel is were my information about Parasite Fighters is from .
Fortunately that’s not true. Discovery might have confused the Goblin with some other experimental aircraft, because the Goblin successfully belly landed after each test with no casualties.
Well the good thing is that I can go back to the previous screen and hit the "Do not recommend chanel" button and I'll never see another of your videos.
Don't forget the F-105G. I've always thought it looks as if it breathed speed. And that first one? The Italian job. It reminded me of the Tube Frisbee's I played with as a child. Except for the wings, of course.
Their all cool. But I like mine much more then any of these. And its not just that its mine. But that its abilities are unlike any of our aircraft today, which are the reasons I designed this first, for search and rescue. And next, its industrial applications. And so much more. But cool video. Thanks.
With regards to the stipa-caproni. That is an idea was way a head of it's time, my i bring your attention to the mig-9 all but one of the planes that followed this concept.
I made a model of the XFV. Years later (I think it was in the late '70s or early '80s) I saw at sitting on the tarmac at an air show in Burbank, CA. I still have photos I took of the XFV somewhere. I also made a model of the X-3 Stiletto as well.
Funny..at 02.26...the maximum speed is 24 miles per hour😂 little slip but the video isn't bad👍 P.S. 07:28..the idea from the AD 1 is not new.. Blohm&Voss had planed in 1942 to use the so called "oblique wing" in their project BV P. 202 The Germans in WW 2 , especially Blohm & Voss, had a reputation for asymetrical plane Designs.....
1:30, it only became successful after WW2, when America got its hands off of the Amado AR E 555....Before that; the Northrop Flying Wing Project wasn't an absolute joke.
Piston version of the Flying Wing had a range of 12000 miles, four times that of the B-36 Peacemaker. Who cares were whether it went 1600 miles shorter than they expected. The Avrocar was a wild-ass guess at a very bad Theory. Dornier do? Where the hell did you get that pronunciation. The X3 was designed to be capable of flying at Mach 2, which the airframe was. They however were not able to secure engines capable of pushing the aircraft that fast. I don't know who's doing the narration or if it's actually a real person, but you can't even get the name of Burt Rutan correct?
Sorry, you're half right, it's not a real aircraft, it's not an aircraft at all and it's also not a Hercules C2 Starlifter but an "A2" or "M2", C2's are primarily white. ;-)
Unfortunately the most amazing advanced unusual aircraft are either always hidden or destroyed due to cutting edge technology. Like imagine having a museum with all of American canada avro arrow, lockheed Martin, mcdonall Douglas, bombardier, Rockwell etc. Aircrafts experimental/ covert aircraft. Like in canada the late 1950s avro canada building the worlds best interceptor for the same or close. which ultimately destroyed the company and had the Canadian American British government forcefully scrap the highly advanced supersonic interceptors for lots of reasons no one actually knows why it was canceled weather it was because of icbms or because American superiority being challenged on its border. But they destroyed everyone that we know of and what replaced the avro arrow American f104 starfighter which was way more behind in almost all areas compared to the avro arrow. And the avro arrow engineering and speed it could of easily be rebuilt larger and turned in to a supersonic heavy bomber instead of being a between fighter reconnaissance aircraft size. even by todays standards the data that we due know about the arrow makes it a great aircraft to field even today in the 21st century
The robotic narrator makes multiple mistakes with pronunciation of names and words, but otherwise an interesting compilation of strange aircraft albeit not totally inclusive of several other oddball aircraft.
AD-1 pivot wing? WHY??? When would you ever really need to pivot the wing in flight? What did they learn from this program? Also, the A.I. narration cracks me up when it mis-pronounces common aviation words, like it needs more programming. A.I. will never be as fun to watch and listen to as some old salty pilot who gives it the human touch.
Considering it was actually test flown, yeah it flies. The videogame creator didn't want to put an aircraft in a game unless it would fly in real life so they built it and flew it
@@michaelmckinnon1591 no it doesn't fly. Never built, never flown. I play Star Citizen and I know for a fact that there are designs in that game that don't fly except for hand waving "it's the 30th Century". Please don't lie.
Most unreal aircraft of all time uses stock image of C2 hercules from Star Citizen for thumbnail
Thanks saved me 12minutes
You mean M2 ;)
Idk why these TH-camrs have to do this this clickbate stuff. Litefoany of the aircrafts shown would have been sufficient enough.
Whew. Glad the C2 wasn't on this list. It's neither strange, an aircraft, or real.
Would be cool though
classic clickbait to get the views, and we all fell for it.

@@tfmg8223 I'm not certain about that. It looks like the C2 based on its coloration.
props to all the wild minds out there inventing fascinating stuff
weird that you couldnt find any footage of that 'plane' in the thumbnail thats totally not stolen concept art of a spaceship in a video game
that is correct.
lol, this channel should have taken screen footage of the videogame, and presented it as real life test footage of a test aircraft from its thumbnail.
Yep its the C2 Hercules from Star Citizen
It’s an M2 . Not C2 ;)
The Proteus is by far the most brilliant design.
I watched this for the first time 27 seconds after it was posted and I’m watching it again😂

There are a lot of Names/Terms that are mis-pronounced in this video. It was pretty painful.
Burt Rutan's name is pronounced Roo tan' One of the best aircraft designers in history
Robot reader?
Not one of the best, just one of the mediocre aircraft designers because none of his standalone designs ever was accepted for use
@@michaelmckinnon1591 Ever check how many Veriezes,Long Ezies or other home builts if his designs were built? Check out Airventure you'll see rows of them.
The Gruman X-29 made my 80's kid heart jump. I never knew the GI Joe Conquest was based off a real plane.
People love this kind of content. Have the thumbnail be of one of these planes instead of some dumb clickbait and more people would watch
That’s the Star Citizen’s C2 Hercules bro lmaoo
The Proteus looks like a graceful bird indeed
Mustard, watching this: Write that down! Write that down!
Proteus - the duck nose is great

that last one, proteus, was extremely strangely beautiful.
Fairly good video but I was distracted by the narrator mispronouncing so many words including nacelles, Northrop, canard
Obviously not a Star Trek (TNG especially). They talk extensively about the nacelles on the Enterprise.
Nacelles is pronounced both ways actually
fantastic planes💣👍✈️✈️

Nice video in aircraft
The Short Bros Maia and Mercury deserved a mention, a plane that takes of from a plane.
This is extremely beneficial!.
Thenk you...The airocar I though was done by bell airspace. I know it was built and test up at bell at Niagara airport ..one of my relative lived in Tonawanda NY work at bell and worked on the projects...thank you.. stay safe..
You've got footage of both competing tail sitters in there for a single aircraft...
My favorite is the flighting wooden barrel. 😁

Very well presented video on the aircraft the public hardly ever see’s
34112 506
But... I wonder if Burt ever saw deer Ruttin' while he was out driving in his Aver car 🚙
The "DOO 31"???!! It's D-O (Dee Oh) . D'oh!!
Though, not a weird design; the Douglas DC 2.5 is definitely a one of a kind and quiet interesting plane that not many people know of.
I had the opportunity to see the POGO fly at Moffett Field in 1954.
What a pity that they totally neglected to even mention Pogo, and blended the footage into the section about Lockheed FXV :-/
Love the Proteus! 🥰

I loved the X-29 design
the proteins looks like it could supplement the A-10 with all that extra wing weapons stations
From experience, I've got the feeling it might be a tad underpowered and too fragile to handle the G's.

Here's an incredible fact for ya.
Far too many youtubers use thumbnails that have absolutely nothing to do with the video contents..
What about the areodyne
4:04 thats why everybody thinks they sees ufos..
Roootan not Rutan! Maybe you should learn something about aviation, not just narration!
That C2 in the thumb lmao
I liked the Proteus the most.
You overlooked the Flying Jeep that was used during the Korean war and was used to transport wounded soldiers .
Ngl thought you were troong. But sure enough, the Hafner Rotabuggy was a real thing
XB-35 and DO-31 were my favorites.
Don't forget the F-105G. I've always thought it looks as if it breathed speed. And that first one? The Italian job. It reminded me of the Tube Frisbee's I played with as a child. Except for the wings, of course.
Another Incredible Fact is that the craft in the thumbnail is a space ship from a video game that prooobably is being used without permission! \o/
Why show a video of the CONVAIR pogo tail-sitter when discussing the Lockheed Salmon which never actually lost the " Temporary " uindercarriage?
Stipa have some potential...🤔
No Vought V-173 "Flying Pancake" or XF5U "Flying Flapjack"?

What about the other Italian "Jet" flown in the 1930s?

I been thinking of building an X3 if I can find one by Tamiya that you didn't have to mortgage your house to buy.
I built a model once.. My brother came in and said Back off man, I'm a scientist.. and threw it on the ground.
The XFV. was one tailsitter..as was the POGO. You showed both planes. One was a delta, one was not. Please get your info right
I remember the X-29.
It was featured on the cover of popular science.
And I wanted one.
