The Vought V-173, nickname "Flying Pancake", was an experimental all-wing fighter aircraft designed by Charles H. Zimmermann for the US in WWII. It was designed as an ESTOL (extreme short take-off and landing) plane. The only prototype ever built can now be seen in the Frontiers of Flight Museum in Dallas.
Thanks to Seeras for helping me with the flying.

Oh ok thank you anyways ☹️ @WahrscheinlichIch
@LightningTerror I tried, but with the design, it was already hard enough to get up at all, in fact I had to consult my fellow builder Seeras to help with the flying.
Can you make it as an ESTOL? Doesn't seems to be like that here. @WahrscheinlichIch
