30.0k Dumpworks  8.8 years ago

This was a fived wing aircraft for the German airforce, also known as a Quintuplane, the reason so many wings were mounted on the aircraft was becuase the Fokker Dr.I was very succesful and had a tight turn ability, the though was that 5 would be even better, but after Fokker tested the aircraft it was abandoned and was regarded as a monstrosity of an aircraft
