Great triangular fuselage on the Nancu, lofted very similarly to the Me 262. As is the tail. The whole thing is an amalgam of good design ideas from the past 5 years – and of course, why shouldn’t it be? Another ‘epitome’ aeroplane from that second ‘golden era’ of pure design for flight before subsonic design stopped being of interest and area ruling, weapons platforming and the American ‘just add power’ ethos took over.
