Here’s a must have work by two experts in the field. With detailed accident stories of the most famous and obscure X-aircraft will leave the reader well satisfied. Years of painstaking field work and research by the authors provide us with a clear picture of where the X-wrecks are and how they got there. Aircraft profiled include the YB-49 and a pair of N9M flying wings, X-1A, X-1D, VB-51, XB-70, SR-71, YF-12, U-2 prototype, and many more.
