[QUOTE="Jemiba, post: 14541, member: 80"] [b]Re: Focke-Wulf Fw-860[/b] A very interesting feature would have been the landing gear, which should have been able to change the aircrafts attitude on the ground from vertical to horizontal, without external help. Would have been quite a lot of hydraulics built into an aircraft, which was crucially depending on a very good thrust-to-weight ratio, I think. But SNECMA wanted to use such an arrangement, too, for its AP 519 design. Would it be worth the added compli- cations ? [/QUOTE]
