Is some american homemade heinkel he-162 
build from a Ryan lighting bug body; a learjet engine; wings and landing gear off mooney M20 and a 20" plexiglass pipe.

but still dont know who build it an how named it

I will never doubt the courage of the pilot that flew that plane.

Sadly he died in this aircraft when it crashed on August 15, 1979 near Puget Sound.

You'll find this aircraft in Aerofiles in the "Ha-Hu" section. The name is the same as a well known fastener seen on clothing.

he died in this aircraft when it crashed

...from an unrecoverable spin.
Which leads us to the question: Why?
Why on earth does mankind always have to repeat the same mistakes?
The whole layout of this plane screams that it isn't stall- or spin-safe.
Both at certain side slip angles and at certain AoA you have to lose control.

here are Bob Hammer and Lt Col Dick Hunt in yours HH-1 "Zipper".
Dick was the stalled one.

Easy with your tips.

Beautiful timing there Locopiston.
Well done - over to you.   

[locopiston]

Tanks Graeme!

Guess thiss!

Something completely new to me. I thought forward-swept wings died with Sukhoi.
And I've never heard of the SAT Bureau before....

Yes!

you turn again Graeme!

[Graeme]

Thanks Locopiston. 
But I think it's time for someone else to have a go.
Cheers!

Having spent more than two days without activity, I proceed to comply with the rules.
as was also open-circle declaring there is no contradiction.

Guess this!
