is this correct?[edit]

The idea of a nuclear powered plane or a ww2 plane that could travel 9,000 miles ...?? are you sure this source is valid? Victuallers (talk) 21:41, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for raising a question about the accuracy of description.
To speak frankly, I don't have good evidence on the information I quoted. The range of B&V P 200 was described in the article de:Richard Vogt without direct reference. In the article the author stated P 200 was a "Flugboot mit 8.000 km Reichweite (flying boat with 8,000 km range)" and wasn't materialized. The hypothetic range was not 9,000 miles but 8,000 km (approx. 4,320 miles).
I found two sites mentioned the Vogt's nuclear powered aircraft (COMBATSIM.COM and History of Aerodynamics and Aircraft Design). The latter said the development was carried out in the mid 1950's. I'm not sure whether these references are correct. As I know these projects did not produce any real aircraft, the two airplanes were not available in the list of his design.
I'd like to know a broad fact, too. -- Bluebeam (talk) 20:21, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thx[edit]

thx for your honesty. Ive raised this on the aviation portal. as an ex aerospace engineer I would say these ideas are "ambitous"/crazy but it could be there are cleverer people than I Victuallers (talk) 09:55, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ha ha, I also think the idea of "nuclear-powered aircraft" is crazy rather than ambitious. But a giant flying boat which could travel 4,300 miles might be probable. What's the truth? -- Bluebeam (talk) 18:52, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Operation Paperclip was an American military operation to bring German scientists and engineers to the VS after World War I. Vogt was invited or brought(?) to the U.S.A. to work there as an aeronautical engineer. --Tikker2 (talk) 11:08, 26 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
