Triggered by the Lippisch developments, that were tested with the X-113 on Lake Constance,
Dornier started research in that field during the 1970s, too, called "Stauflügelgerät" (. One project for a commercial transport
was the P.477 for up to 27 passengers. Another one, desigantion unknown, showed similarities
with the Aleksejew KM-1, but probably would have been powered by four turboprop engines on
the canard and on the tailplane.

(Pictures and data from the book with the handy title „Zeppelins Flieger – Das Flugzeug im Zeppelin-
Konzern und in seinen Nachfolgebetrieben“, different authors, published by the Zeppelin-Museum Friedrichshafen )
