A family UFO / Un UFO di famiglia !

This is too funny and abstruse not to tell you. I will start by saying that fantasy mixes with reality and I will warn you in advance of what is history and what is stories…

So let’s start from the beginning … once upon a time in Switzerland there was a factory that came from Germany because after the Treaty of Versailles even German civil aviation was heavily controlled: it was feared that it could mask a re-militarization. It was called Dornier and the engineer Dornier had worked for Count Zeppelin, yes, the one who built the Zeppelin airships. Among other things, Led Zeppelin were called that because at the time you couldn’t “fly” higher than that (with the Zeppelin … and metaphorically speaking … well, you get the idea). The Dornier aircraft factory, once moved to Switzerland, became the FFA Altenrhein, today a beautiful museum of vintage aviation with aircraft in operation and spectacular cars https://ffamuseum.ch/ . Among other things, if you click on the link you will find an article I had done for the prototype of the supersonic jet of that time, the legendary P16 , but that’s another story.

After the Second World War, Dornier was bought by a great-uncle of mine and that is why it is a family story. So far, it is History.

In a highly dubious book (the writer does not identify himself and the publisher does not verify the sources) on the secret societies of the 20th century I find stories (and here we enter fantasy) of aircraft capable of exploiting the alleged anti-gravity technology.

Among the many things narrated, these are legends about the alleged Nazi activities towards the end of the war, exploiting the facts that led to the Manhattan Project and the development of NASA with German scientists and engineers who escaped Nuremberg for their technical merits. In any case, this tale tells that the Nazis developed flying saucers thanks to anti-gravitation. Of course, it is nice that in the technical data provided, flying saucers can only turn by certain degrees (I think 45, if I remember correctly). If we want to refer to the video that was circulating a few years ago on the net of an American fighter that had filmed an unidentified flying object, we could find a link with reality. If we really wanted to believe these stories, we would say that the technology was kept secret by the Americans … ok, let’s continue.

Now comes the best part: according to my completely unverified source, the Nazi government had put out a call for tenders for the mass production of our UFOs and the company that had won an order was… DORNIER! When I read it I was really amused. The Dornier company, which would become the property of this great-uncle of mine once he moved to Switzerland and which (I checked) had not sold weapons to the Germans, was supposed to mass-produce the Haunebu II. A flying saucer 32 m in diameter, with a speed of 6000 km/h, of which 7 examples had been built and which had carried out 106 test flights… come on!!! Is or isn’t it a story too funny not to tell you!

According to GPT Chat:

🛸 1. Real-world projects of advanced aircraft

✅ Horten Ho 229

Experimental stealth aircraft designed by the Horten brothers.
Delta wings, a futuristic shape, anticipated radar-absorbent principles.
Prototype flew in 1944–45 but was never operational.

✅ Sack AS-6

German Circular Project: A Real Experimental Flying Saucer, But With Disastrous Performance .
It never actually flew, it was abandoned.

✅ Vril and Haunebu (advanced speculation)

In documents circulating after the war (especially after the 1950s), there is talk of projects called Vril 1 , Haunebu I-II-III , Andromeda-Gerät .
No serious documentary evidence.
Most of this information comes from neo-Nazi or esoteric sources (e.g. Vril Gesellschaft , Thule-Gesellschaft ), not confirmed by official historical sources .

🌌 2. Esoteric and Post-War Mythology

🕳️ Antarctica and Base 211

According to conspiracy theories, the Nazis built an underground base in Antarctica from which flying saucers were launched.
Often linked to Richard Byrd’s Operation Highjump (1946–47), which was a post-war US naval exercise.
No concrete evidence has ever emerged.

🛸 Alien Technology or Technological Reversal

Some more extreme versions claim that the Nazis obtained extraterrestrial technology .
In other cases, there is talk of mediumistic contacts with entities (e.g. Maria Orsic , Vril medium ) who would have channeled construction plans.

🧠 3. Critical analysis

After the war, the German aircraft industry was actually ahead of the Allies in several fields (missiles, jets, flying wings).
Many German scientists (von Braun, Horten, Dornier…) were recruited by the USA and USSR .
However, there is no solid historical evidence to support the existence of operational flying saucers built by the Third Reich.

📚 Conclusion

The myth of the “Nazi flying saucers” was born from the combination of:

Real, but failed, experimental aircraft projects.
Fascination with the Reich’s secret technology.
Esoteric, propagandistic or science fiction post-war theories , often promoted by neo-Nazi or occultist circles.

Questa è troppo divertente e astrusa per non raccontarvela. Premetto che la fantasia si mischia con la realtà e vi avvertirò in anticipo di ciò che è storia e di quelle che sono storie …

Allora partiamo dal principio … c’era una volta in Svizzera una fabbrica che veniva dalla Germania perchè dopo il trattato di Versailles anche l’aviazione civile tedesca fu fortemente controllata: si temeva potesse mascherare una ri-militarizzazione. Si chiamava Dornier e l’ingegner Dornier aveva lavorato per il conte Zeppelin, sì proprio quello che costruiva i dirigibili Zeppelin. Fra l’altro i Led Zeppelin si sono chiamati così perché all’epoca più in alto di così non si poteva “volare” (con lo Zeppelin … e fuor di metafora … beh, avete capito). La fabbrica di aerei Dornier diventerà una volta trasferita in Svizzera la FFA Altenrhein, oggi un bellissimo museo di aviazione d’epoca con apparecchi in attività e auto spettacolari https://ffamuseum.ch/. Tra le altre cose se cliccate sul link trovate un articolo che avevo fatto per il prototipo di jet supersonico di quell’epoca, il leggendario P16, ma questa è un’altra storia.

Dopo la seconda guerra mondiale la Dornier viene comprata da un mio pro-zio e per questo che è una storia di famiglia. Fin quì è Storia.

In un libro assai dubbio (chi lo scrive non si identifica e chi lo pubblica non verifica le fonti) sulle società segrete del XX secolo trovo le storie (e qui entriamo nella fantasia) di velivoli capaci di sfruttare la presunta tecnologia antigravità.

Se vuoi dare un occhiata : https://www.macrolibrarsi.it/libri/__le-societa-segrete-e-il-loro-potere-nel-ventesimo-secolo-jan-van-helsing-jan-udo-holey-libro.php

Si tratta, fra le tante cose narrate, di leggende sulle presunte attività naziste verso la fine della guerra sfruttando i fatti che hanno portato al progetto Manhattan e allo sviluppo della Nasa con scienziati e ingegneri Tedeschi che per meriti tecnici sono sfuggiti a Norimberga. Ad ogni modo in questa favola si narra che i Nazisti abbiano sviluppato dei dischi volanti grazie all’anti-gravitazione. Certo è carino il fatto che nei dati tecnici forniti i dischi volanti possano virare solo di determinati gradi (credo a 45. se ricordo bene). Se vogliamo rifarci al video che circolava qualche anno fà in rete di un caccia americano che aveva filmato un oggetto volante non identificato potremmo trovare un aggancio con la realtà. Se proprio volessimo credere a queste storie diremmo che la tecnologia è stata mantenuta segreta dagli americani … ok proseguiamo.

Ora viene il bello : sempre secondo la mia fonte assolutamente non verificata, il governo Nazi aveva fatto una gara d’appalto per la costruzione in serie dei nostri UFO e ad aggiudicarsi un’ordinazione era stata … la DORNIER ! Quando l’ho letto mi sono davvero divertito. La ditta Dornier, che diventerà di proprietà di questo mio pro-zio una volta trasferita in Svizzera e che (ho controllato) non ha venduto armi ai Tedeschi, avrebbe dovuto produrre in serie l’Haunebu II. Un disco volante di 32 m di diametro, velocità di 6000 km/h e di cui ne erano stati realizzati 7 esemplari che avrebbero effettuato 106 voli di prova … eh dai !!! È o non è una storia troppo divertente per non raccontarvela !
