The aircraft has been in development for three years and a
prototype has started flight tests at Eisenach Airfield with the approval of the
German Federal Aviation Authority.
The design has no tail or fuselage its all wing. The company name honours the
visionary aircraft designer Dr. Ing. Reimar Horten (1915-1994), a pioneer in the
field of flying wings along with Hugo Junkers.
Due to its low aerodynamic resistance, the flying wing flies farther and faster
than a comparable aircraft with a fuselage, said Bernhard Mattlener, managing
director of the company, which belongs to the LIFT Air group.
