Miethe's Flying Disk: A Piece of Aviation History from the 1940s This photograph captures the moment of the historic flight of Miethe's Flying Disk, also known as the Schriever-Habermohl Flying Disc, in Prague on February 4, 1945. With a diameter of 20 meters, this large aircraft, shaped like a disc, was the brainchild of German engineers Walter Schriever and Hans-Jürgen Habermohl. During the final stages of World War Two, the team successfully flew the disk, which was designed for transport purposes, in the skies above Prague. However, the war did not end in their favor. The Russians took control of the city and the disk was seized by the Soviet forces, marking the end of its story in German hands. The Miethe Flying Disk, a precursor to modern rotorcraft and helicopters, was an intriguing innovation for its time. Its unique shape and unconventional design sparked both fascination and controversy, with some even speculating that it was an early UFO sighting. However, the truth behind this fascinating piece of aviation history is far more mundane, yet no less impressive. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the human spirit, showcasing a moment in history when the impossible seemed possible. The Miethe Flying Disk may not have revolutionized transportation as we know it, but it certainly left an indelible mark on the annals of aviation history.
