Hello,

I need to answer this:

Which 1941 German aircraft has no pistons or jet engine and takes off with 3 wheels but lands with only one?


Any help would be much appreciated!

Mike

Well, that's what I meant. I only missed it by 1 number.

Mudge the mathmatically challenged :Hangman:

Another one off the top of my head (unsure of date) the Blohm & Voss BV-40 glider fighter which had the same trolley/tailwheel combo.


I know, I know its a long shot. :roll:
