Great video on why the Northrop flying wing was cancelled


John (Jack) K. Northrop's final interview on why the YB-49 flying wing bomber contract got cancelled by Secretary of Air Force Symington. Dirt bag.
At least Northrop was vindicated by the B-2.

Flying Wings - John K. Northrop's Final Interview - 1979 (28 min 7 sec)


I haven't flown in quite a while but still turn to wings for the most fun. Still flying my Lighting forward swept wing that just won't break.
Going to get out next week for sure.
