Hi
I'm doing a profile for the Super Lorin and have a few questions if I may?

If anyone has any views or likely answers I would be very grateful.

Metal skinned fuselage yes, but were the wings also to be metal skinned or wooden?

Also it was to be Ram jet powered with initial propulsion by rocket motor presumably in the tail, so I ask what is the nose intake for?
This leads to an exit half way along the underside of the fuselage as expertly illustrated by Jozef Gatial's lovely illustrations found on Dan's Luft 46 site.

Many thanks.

It suggests that there is some sort of propulsion system buried within the aircraft but I can see how it would come to be there. Possibly a ram rocket?

Another thought is that there is no electrical generation system with ram jets and rockets. Perhaps it is a ram turbine, similar to that fitted to the nose of the 163 but buried internally...
