So boys and girls – Which do you think is the most bizare plane ever? Here are some examples for inspiration:
Colani Cygnus. High capacity airliner designed for Aeroflot in 80s. It was powered by two screw-like blowers.
Another Colani Mach 5 high capacity airliner from 1983. Air intakes were placed in wings leading edges.
Berijev Be-2500. Huge WIG project from Russia.
Snecma Coléoptére. Very unconventional French ring wing tailsitter fighter.
Some of civil ring-wing concepts:
Wingless (!) plane from american designer Bill Horton.
French designers probably like bizare concepts. This is turbojet/ramjet powered Leduc 022.
Lets kill them all. Flying 1WW battleship Loire 301. Of course from France.
