| This was a big flying-wing transport glider, built in competition
with the Me 321. The RLM insisted that the Ju 322 would be built
of wood, a construction technique not used by Junkers since 1918.
The RLM ordered 200, but the Ju 322 was cancelled after the
prototype proved unstable. The Me 321 was selected for production.

As if that weren't difficult enough to achieve, the German Air Ministry insisted that Junkers, the firm that pioneered the construction of all-metal aircraft, should build the thing entirely out of wood. The result was predictably disastrous! reply | |
