Stuttgart, June 21.
One of Hitler's leading aircraft designers, Dr Ernest Heinkel, who claimed to have been responsible for the world's first jet-propelled flight in 1939, is so busy producing aero-dynamic motor scooters that he has "no definite plans” for re- entering the aircraft industry.
His son, Ernst Heinkel, Junior, said that they do not regard the entry of West Germany into the Western alliance as the signal for a race against | other West German designers to secure the first Contract from the West German Defence Ministry.
In the second place, Heinkel it is pointless for West says, Germany to pretend that she with the Great catch up Powers in this field for a long time.
