AIRCRAFT - UFO
NO RESERVE - WILL BE SOLD TO HIGHEST BIDDER
The first photo of flying disc shaped aircraft is for illistration purposes only because we do not have photos of flying our UFO so the scenery is the same but aircraft is different; we hope that everybody understands that. But because we have received many questions, we want to make it absolutely clear to everybody: For sale is UFO on other photos with full aluminum construction in green color and black leather covered wings. UFO for sale is fully functional, everything works - aileron surfaces, flaps, rudder, elevator, etc.; just a special aircraft engine is worth more than is starting bid. Aircraft is sell for parts but it is not a piece of junk but very real piece of aeronautical history with its historical value. The aircraft was tested to fly a couple years ago in ground effect condition with very good results but it is by no means for sales as flying aircraft. Whatever will be done with the aircraft and how it will be used or modified, it is fully the responsibility of the new owner. Just remember for consideration that similiar ground effect flying vehicle was sold recently on ebay for almost a couple hundred thousand dollars because ground effect flying vehicle has many advantages against fully flying aircraft. This UFO could be used as ground effect flying vehicle very easy without complicated modifications.
This
aircraft is a real flying disc shaped wings aircraft - UFO, a real flying disc.
The aircraft is in ready to fly condition theoretically but it is not so easy.
The aircraft is a one of two prototypes that has ever existed and was last time
flown during its development in the 60's and 70's; from that time it was just
kept in the museum condition but not as in a flying condition. No maintenance,
no annuals, or nothing like that but it was kept inside an exhibition hall and
hangar all the time. The last time the flying was tested, just in ground effect
flying about ten years ago and then again about four years ago. From this
ground effect testing, the results show Coanda Effect stability - vertical
force and possible take off speed with one pilot inside about 25 – 30 miles per
hour would make it closer to VTOL type aircraft like real UFO with short take
off and landing. The engine was last checked about two months ago when there
was found a small problem with the starter - a burnt wire to the connection,
which is now fixed and the starter is ready to put back into the aircraft. So before the real flying, the aircraft would
have to go through some work from a mechanical point of view, which you surely
could understand to be really possible to fly again. All equipment,
construction, engine, etc. has very low hours and we don't know exactly how
many but this prototype was just built up and tested so from that point of
view, it is almost like new. Besides its age from the time of development, from
a legal point of view it should also be registered by the FAA; the aircraft is
not presently registered and so far we know never actually was. About our knowledge, what we know just from
rumor by mouth, there existed two prototypes of this aircraft. The previous one
which was actually flying and then was donated to the Air force of India during
the 60's and 70's which was used to train the fighter pilots and what happened
with this aircraft nobody knows and it disappeared in time. The other one which
we have for sale is the second one improved based on results from the first one
and experiences from flying the first one but this one was only developed,
built up, shortly tested and sat from that time in the hangar only until today.
It might be behind this also the death of the key person engineer behind the
project who died from natural causes.
This
aircraft is unique and extraordinary from many points of view. It is the only
one real flying disc shaped aircraft - flying disc - flying wing - (UFO). So far we don’t know of any other aircraft
with such disc shaped wing was ever flown. When it is flying, from the ground
it is visible, just a circle profile - regular disc and that is why this
aircraft was mistaken for an UFO and it is really the only one "fly disc"
which ever existed.
The
disc shape of the aircraft gives it a couple of extraordinary qualities. At
first a disc shape aircraft has very low drag in comparison with any other
aircraft with wings. Very low drag of disc which is a physical law and guarantees
high speed and some other advantages during flying but it is also true that
flying disc has a tendency to be unstable and that is why this our aircraft is
the only one which has overcome this technical problem with disc shaped wings
and was really flying. Still this disc shaped wings means that this aircraft
should be flown by a very good and very experienced pilot only; it is not an
aircraft for beginners or a sports pilot.
The
disc shape also guarantees very low reflection on the radar which means why it
was developed as a so called Stealth Technology. This aircraft was part of this
Stealth Technology in the US which we have today. This Stealth interest was
started in Germany during WWII and that is why the first prototype was started
at the end of the WWII. Our aircraft is from many points of view, actually an improved
replica of the Nazi aircraft – a famous Nazi UFO and nobody is able to say
today if some parts and which ones are originally from Germany or it was just a
copy of them. The main change from the
German prototype is that our aircraft is a pusher configuration, while the
original German aircraft was a tractor configuration. As compared to the German prototype, our
aircraft has better improvements to help better stable and better flying.
Our
aircraft utilizes also positive effect, Coanda effect because of the curvature
of this disc shape which makes it more stable during taxiing. The aircraft has just one support wheel in the
middle of the aircraft during taxiing which also reduces the drag during flying
and the Coanda effect also makes much shorter take off and landing.
Before
flying the aircraft it must be registered first; this should be possible under an
experimental category because from another point of view, it is a regular
single engine, propeller driven aircraft, pusher type for two persons. The
basic construc- tion material is aluminum which used some flexible leather
material on the wings which also reduced radar reflection area; the flexibility
of this material helps with the flying characteristic because of the layers of
air closest to the wings. This flexible,
adaptable surface of wings is studied just recently again and was not used
purposely from that time so far in other aircrafts, besides use in
biomechanical use in biology by some flying animals and birds. The process is still being studied and is not
understood very well.
The
aircraft is in excellent almost like new condition but must be technically
changed and prepared for flying as well as registered under an experimental
category before it could be flown. The last real flying was during the 70's
because the program was stopped and after that it was just tested in ground
effect; the engine was running and aircraft was kept in museum condition inside
protected environment.
This
aircraft is offered for sale because the private museum was closed and that is
why this extraordinary opportunity to own such a piece of aeronautical history
might be possible.
From
what was said because of extraordinary specifications this aircraft is very
unique and actually the only in the world that exists and there is not any
other even remotely similar to our aircraft that would be developed, built up
and not mentioned actually, flying or to be in flying condition. Because of that
and to compare it's very significant historical value - from Nazi Germany to
developing Stealth Technologies and flying wings in the US., the historical and
technical value of the aircraft is very high, even if the aircraft would stay
in its museum condition and would not fly again. Still it would have a very
high value for some collectors who would appreciate history and technical
specification of this unique aircraft. It could be used also for advertisement
and any possible business related to "UFOs", movies, etc.
This
is an once in a lifetime to buy this unique aircraft; the only one prototype
which exists worldwide. This aircraft is in very good museum condition, with
very low hours on everything and from that point of view it is almost in ready
to fly condition. Because the owner was first to close his private museum, this
aircraft is offered for sale and will be sold in any case for any serious or
reasonable offer whichever comes first. For a serious interested buyer, it
would be possible to show the aircraft which is actually located inside a
hangar at an airport in Las Vegas, Nevada. There is not any other information
available, most information was lost during the time; there are not any plans
or technical specifications available. For any good aircraft mechanic it is
possible to find out all necessary information by inspection of the aircraft.
Other technical specifications are standard similar like all other aircrafts.
The dashboard is from 70's and is working but if someone would like to put the
aircraft in flying condition today; the aircraft might be updated with all new
electronics available today. The engine is also unique construction similar to
the Formula 1 car in the 70's on the best guess and in the late 70's it was an
engine with one of the best performance. It has about 180 to 200 hp. This
engine has very low hours and is original but it might be updated also with the
latest aircraft engine today or maybe even a turbine engine and put in a
turbine propeller aircraft which might increase extraordinary flying
characteristics even more. The basic construction is from full aircraft type
aluminum. So for a real flying aircraft today the owner may want to update the aircraft
with a new engine or turbine and the latest electronics but it is not necessary
at all and the aircraft might be ready to fly in its original, historical setup
condition. The main and not easy replica value of the aircraft is for a
specific disc construction with unique flying characteristics. This technical
specification together with historical value makes this aircraft very unique
and its value very high.
The
owner is willing to consider any reasonable offers including maybe some kind of
trade; for low hours, two engine aircraft like a Cessna 421 or similar.
From
the legal point of view, as any owner of an aircraft and pilot understand, this
aircraft is legally for sale as in parts only – selling just parts - not
completed ready to fly aircraft which is not from a legal point of view in any
stage of flying condition or ready to fly condition. The aircraft is selling just for parts with
no warranty or function of any parts.
All parts are for sale as is conditions.
Everything else depends on new owner, how he will want to use these
parts and everything is on his own responsibility. The aircraft could be used in many ways, in a
multi-million dollar business with a “UFO” team in background, attractions,
entertainment, movies, etc. It could
also be used seriously or just for fun for its extraordinary flying
capabilities. It could also be used as a
very special fast and stable ground effect vehicle which would eliminate many
legal points which the registration would make easy as a boat – “flying boat” –
ground effect vehicle which is the easiest way to use this aircraft with using
advantages of some of its extraordinary flying characteristics like very
stable, in ground effect, disc shape design with air cushion all circled under
the vehicle and still fast in ground effect because of low drag of disc shape;
the aircraft was tested for that and it behaves perfectly which makes it also a
very special, extraordinary ground effect vehicle. To change for a ground
effect vehicle you would need some small changes in design including floats
which might be included in the sale. For
the sale at this moment is the aircraft, original untouched condition which
might be registered as experimental aircraft.
At this point, the aircraft is selling for parts only, or exhibition use
and all further responsibility is on the new owner.
This extraordinary flying machine - only one real UFO which ever existed and was possible to fly, this aircraft was mistaken for an UFO because when seen flying disc flying in the sky is what people could see. Together with other special characteristics like utilizes the Coanda Effect for stabilization during taxiing and for shorter take off and landing together with very low drag based on physical law of disc shape wing and the same very low radar reflection makes this extraordinary aircraft as close to imaginary UFO as possible; actually it was the only one real flying UFO ever existed. This time you have ones in life an opportunity to own this extraordinary machine, either as a piece of aeronautical history because it is in original, like new showroom condition or use it for any other purpose - flying for fun, UFO business, etc. The UFO was donated to our nonprofit organization - church and all raised money from the auction will be used for charity and humanitarian projects only.
