Walter Horten


This small private homepage is dedicated to the Horten brothers and their famous Nurflügel-planes.

I´m always searching for infos & pictures about the Horten-history and Nurflügels in general!

This page is still under construction, please excuse the primitive layout!

If you want to know further details about Nurflügel-planes, please check out the perfect & leading Nurflügel-pages of Douglas Bullard at:

http://www.nurflugel.com 


Here are the Nurflügel-stickers, professionally made, good for all places, also outdoor (car, plane etc.)

(left one available in orange, right one is brand NEW + bigger (12,5 cm diameter) and in cool silver & bw,

(very special thanks to Reinhold Stadler, who gave me the basic drawing for Ho IV on these stickers!)


Also new: Nurflügel-cards now available !!!

I had the chance to get some very interesting (as i think) never published Horten III b pictures !!!

These pictures are from the private photo-album of old Horten worker and sailplane-pilot Alfred Deutsch.

Now, 60 years after snapshooting them, he was so kind to give me the originals for my 1st nurflügel-edition.

(Don´t miss the chance to get these rare cards, professionally offset-printed on fat 300 g/m² glossy paper)

Isn´t it the right medium to send your greetings to your nurflügel-friends ?

If you want some stickers or cards, just mail me, shipping worldwide, i give discounts on larger amounts for clubs etc.!)

If you have other interesting flying wing-pictures/drawings/3D-animations etc. from private archives

and want them to be published to our growing nurflügel-community,

feel free to contact me

I have to say a very big "THANK YOU" to all the nurflugel-freaks,

 especially Reinhold Stadler, Doug Bullard, David Myhra, Al Bowers, Peter Selinger and all the others,

who helped me with infos about the Horten brothers and the(ir) real thing:

"The Nurflügel".
