Topic renamed.

I removed the Hodgdon Ascender from your initial post, hesham, as well as the link (http://www.aerofiles.com/_h.html), since that flying car project was the work of Theodore A. Hodgdon from Detroit, Michigan, not John Hodgdon.

Apparently the wrong image has returned to the initial post for some unknown reason.
@hesham, the two Hodgdon projects were not related AT ALL.

Edit : Photo of the Hodgdon Ascender removed

Truss inside the rigid airship skeleton? Together that means the wings have support along more of the root...
