(holds up umbrella to avoid the dumping of the hot marmalade)

FlightSim. They have a lot of odd-ball goodies. The only thing about the DL is that one of the BMP's (w_500_2.bmp) needs it's Alpha inverted, otherwise some of the bits and pieces are transparent (it's a FS9 addon, so it's not perfect in FSX) Flies like a helicopter.

More like a wacked out helicopter, or an inside out cuisinart food processor. But the Germans were working on two aircraft that was something more along the lines the the Flap Jack known as the FW VTOL (I'd like to see that as an addon!), and even more similar, the Sack AS 6.
