As a kid I had a model of a BV 141 and it annoyed the hell out of me because it was not symmetrical. As I've grown older I have grown to love its unique design.
|
The BV 141 was withdrawn from service because the pilot felt nausea and disorientation from being positioned of centre.
Hence it has never been done since.. (not including the Sea Vixen)

@DeadJesterUK
The twin Mustang the Zwilling and many many more were quite satifactory in off centre configeration...The BV141 was NOT withdrawn for that reason........

This is a plane that was supposed to be used during world war 2. They needed a plane that could spot things on the ground (since they didnt have radars etc.. back then) and they positioned the pilot on one of the wings because the propellors obscured the pilots vision.
