10 Worst Plane Ever Failed Made

105 years after the Wright brothers on the air, the dreamers, flight engineers and practitioners have designed a variety of aircraft and a variety of research to make the plane go faster, fly higher and higher.

There are some innovative, some are good and some have made ​​history, but there was also a great only on paper only.

Top 10 worst plane ever made

1. TUPOLEV TU-144
 
The plane, similar to the Concorde supersonic aircraft is the first Russian made that reach speeds of March 2 (2 times the speed of sound), pilot dubbed "Concordski" is so fast but bad luck struck reply barrage, three planes crashed one of them falls when the action Paris Air Show 1973 who witnessed thousands of pairs of eyes.
A dramatic accident that this plane who ultimately only serve as an aircraft carrier by the Russian government, in 1985 the aircraft was off the air.

2. B.O.A.C. de Havilland Comet
COMET is the UK's first commercial jet aircraft at once is the pride of English when it first aired in 1949, but now only remembered as a very safe aircraft to fly, of 114 produced 13 of them falling because of manufacturing defects due to one of metal materials from the plane easily damaged.
3. H-4 Hercules
The "Spruce Goose" so this plane is a plane dubbed the smartest and most large aircraft, but also the most mubadzir ever had the American government.

With a wing span of 319 Feet in length or about 97 meters of the aircraft is planned to be used for World War II, but after World War II ended the aircraft has not been completed, after the completion of manufactured aircraft had flown only one time only.


4. LWS-4 Zubr
 
Zubr is a bad plane while not beneficial, but uncomfortable when flying can also be destroyed without warning when it receives a high air pressure, not only that the aircraft is unable to fly when loaded with only a few carton of cigarettes only.

This aircraft had flown a few times when World War II but was never involved in combat.

5. Christmas Bullet
 
A good name, a bad plane, Dr. William Christmas to forget one thing when designing this aircraft, he did not know if this model airplane wing as a result need a crutch when in 1918 the first flight of this airplane wing shattered and fell.

This is what should be a model aircraft that need support and which not:

 
6. Beechcraft Starship
 
With carbon-composite construction, unique design and the turbo behind the engine, the Starship is a new breakthrough, but this plane is too slow, difficult to be flown and difficult to maintain.
The aircraft was aired in 1989 but only sold a few units of 53 pieces made​​.

7. Hiller VZ-1
Hiller VZ-1 looks good on paper but looks ugly in the air. The idea is simple, a fan spinning round and it produced a boost upwards, while the pilot controls the aircraft while standing.

U.S. Department of Defense fell in love with this plane model but when it was flown above the speed of 16 Miles / hour is difficult to control the aircraft to move here and there at last project was halted in the 1950s.
8. A-12 Avenger II
The plane of his project The Defense Department is costing the U.S. is so big and extravagant, is also the most embarrassing project in the 1980s because of radar systems that use composite materials is often not functioning.

Research to improve this deficiency only makes the cost of making this plane soared to $ 165 million / unit (about RP. 1.5 Trillion) project eventually was terminated by the U.S. defense secretary in 1991.
9. Royal Aircraft B.E.2
With a machine such as anemia, poor maneuverability and gun positions that hinder the pilot. The Germans easily shoot down the planes in the battle of World War I.
10. Boeing XB 15
XB 15 is the largest aircraft ever made to America than H-4 Hercules, the size of the giant bombers there are even a bedroom for the crew in the wings. When tested in 1937 the aircraft was not capable of flying long and is only capable of driving in a speed of 200 miles / hour, air force America to stop this project, then the plane was modified and only used as cargo planes with Boeing XB name.
