O. M. G. !!!! I'm still sat in reception and I'm quietly howling with laughter and crying with laughter - not even going to consider trying to translate this for the receptionist (the friendly one would probably laugh but this girl isn't particularly communicative, so she'll have to just keep giving me weird looks!!)

I'm sure this won't offend anyone, but damn I'm still crying with laughter!!!

She just asked me if I was ok (probably wasn't sure if I was laughing or crying!) and I had to explain that it was a rude joke in english and I didn't think I could explain!! :lol: :angelic-green: )

The Horten Ho 229 was a groundbreaking German prototype aircraft that represented a significant leap in aviation technology during World War II. Designed by the innovative Horten brothers, Walter and Reimar, this aircraft was a pioneering example of a pure flying wing configuration powered by jet engines. The Ho 229 combined several advanced concepts, including its sleek, tailless design that inadvertently reduced its radar cross-section, making it an early precursor to modern stealth aircraft. Its first powered test flight on February 2, 1945, at Oranienburg, Germany, marked a historic moment in aviation, showcasing the potential of this revolutionary design. Although often referred to as a stealth fighter/bomber, the Ho 229 was not intentionally designed for stealth, but its unique shape and use of radar-absorbing materials in its construction contributed to a lower radar profile. Despite its promising performance and design, the aircraft never entered production due to the war's end, leaving it as a tantalizing glimpse of what might have been in aircraft development.
