Daimler-Benz Project 'A" to 'F'

From Interavia 1948

Here we go again with the 94 meter wingspan myth. The carriers had wingspans in the area of 50 - 60 meters, however the 94 meter figure keeps coming up. Perhaps it was a briefly studied concept with no surviving blueprints or diagrams?

94 m in place of 54 ? Simple typo in my opinion ...

Of passing interest, the LucasArts videogame Secret Weapons Over Normandy featured the Project C carrier aircraft with parasite fighters attacking you. Great game.

Perhaps initially... I've seen the 94 value in various sources including books, articles, websites. When you actually start measuring the blueprints they provide in comparison to the carriable aircraft, you find a 94 meter wingspan to be impossible.
