5 Bizarre Planes That Shouldn’t Have Flown… But Did 💥

Описание: 5 Bizarre Planes That Shouldn’t Have Flown… But Did 💥

Some aircraft were so unusual they looked impossible, until engineers proved otherwise.

5️⃣ Rutan Boomerang
A twin-engine plane that looks uneven on purpose. Its odd shape keeps it stable even if one engine fails.

4️⃣ Stipa-Caproni
Think flying barrel. Its hollow fuselage boosted airflow and became an early lesson in jet design.

3️⃣ Vought Flying Pancake
A flat Navy fighter that looked like a UFO but actually flew smooth and steady.

2️⃣ SNECMA Coléoptère
A vertical “flying ring” jet that hovered like a rocket, strange, but real.

1️⃣ Lockheed XFV “Salmon”
A tail-sitting fighter that launched straight up and tipped forward into flight. Brave pilots made it work.

Which one looks the weirdest?
