Description

Amidst fevered speculation about flying saucers as the favoured transport of extra-terrestrial visitors to our planet, it is an established fact that a variety of experimental aircraft designs have been made in different countries that could be described as being similar to flying saucers or flying wings. This is a serious factual study of twenty such projects including the pre-war Vought V-173 Pancake and Boeing B390, and the post-war secret projects from Avro-Canada, the Lockheed Skunk Works, North American and NASA.
