Thanks, Bruce! I figured it might be Wernher von Braun he was referring to. It was the other one that had me especially stumped.

Please forgive my ignorance, but who the heck are "Von Brahm or Willy Lee"? Â

Watching episode 9 volume 3 of UFO mega set entitled Ordeal when Foster walked into that party with the Beatles playing and everybody looking like they had steped out of a Austin Powers movie I was like OMG if the futures like that wow then I grew up and discovered how wrong I was but any how they did have cool clothes, I understand many folks may think me a techno-geek but I have been taking apart the tech on sci-fi shows since I was able to read the trek tech pubs I always did think that many of the craft designs that Gerry created had there bases in fact. Take 0X for example you have a long range interplanetary craft thats launched by use of a lifting body I do believe it was Von Brahm or Willy Lee that came up with a design close to 0X.
In UFO we have SkyDiver while sky one was not the first flying sub so to speak we can thank Irwin Allen for that. I do remember seeing plans to a flying sub in a popular science or popular mechanics magazine. Well I have written enough any other Techno-Geeks who wants to talk e-mail me
