Sack AS.6
During World War II, a number of disc-shaped aircraft were proposed by aircraft designers in Nazi Germany. One of the few to make it further than the drawing board was the Sack AS-6, an experimental lightplane with a round-winged planform that first flew in 1944. The aircraft proved unsuccessful, and was scrapped in early 1945.

Famous quotes containing the word sack:
“The human mind is so complex and things are so tangled up with each other that, to explain a blade of straw, one would have to take to pieces an entire universe.... A definition is a sack of flour compressed into a thimble.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
