Verhees D-Plane 1: The Unique Delta Wing Aircraft You Can Build at Home

Описание: Verhees D-Plane 1 is one of Belgium’s most unusual homebuilt aircraft, combining a compact delta wing with a remarkably practical design. Developed by Bart Verhees, this single-seat flying wing first flew in 2004 with a 50 hp Subaru EA71 engine. Its aluminum structure, elevons, retractable monowheel landing gear and folding outer wings make it unlike conventional light aircraft. Discover the history, engineering, aerodynamic ideas and unusual features behind the Verhees D-Plane 1 and the later two-seat D-Plane 2.
