Strange and Unusual Aircraft - 25
RFB X-114 Aerofoil Craft
The RFB X-114 Aerofoil Craft was an experimental ground effect vehicle intended
to work over water, with the ability to fly out of ground effect when required.
It was the last of three such aircraft designed by Alexander Lippisch in the
1960s and early 1970s. The low powered, two seat proof of concept Collins X-112
was followed by the RFB X-113, structurally and aerodynamically refined but
still low powered.
