EAGES 09 - A Discussion with Hanno Fischer - Hanno Fischer

INTRODUCTION

Hanno Fischer sadly left us in 2024, and leaves an impressive legacy of innovative planes and flying ships. In 2001, he and his team had just certified the FS8 (now Airfish 8) with GL, and were developing the Hoverwing technology which would lead to the development of the Hoverwing 20 and WSH 500. He took time to simply show some videos which were at the time a discovery for most of the attendees (this was before youtube) and discuss with the students.

ABSTRACT

Hanno Fischer presented a 20 minutes movie showing the main part of the development of the ideas of Ing. Alexander Lippisch on reversed delta wings in ground effect from the X-112 to the X-114, and their successors developed by Fischer Flugmechanik and AFD - Airfoil Development GmbH. Most of these movies will soon be available on the WIG Page, in the movies section. To illustrate these movies are presented here two pictures of each craft with a text extracted from the WIG Page, courtesy of Edwin van Opstal.
