        But that doesn't matter, it's still a great pic and a nice subject to model.
        I was kind of thinking maybe a bit of a staged one as well,for a bit,but then saw some others so ,ya
        it could happen they did see on 100s of them
        see the pic Paul posted,as well

          I too thought it was a bit fanciful - surely they would have broken up on impact?
          Obviously another bit of German over engineering.

              there were,and at the start of them making theses were piloted,to get them flying right,and it took a bit getting the
              v2 right as well,the shells were to thing,and need more supports,that what they worked out from slowmo film,that the shel
              would buckle with height,
