The SK V6 experimental twin-boom light monoplane was eventually adapted as the SK SL6 to /light test the control surface arrangement of Blohm and Voss's proposed "Arrow Wing". |
After a series of flight trials the prototype SK V6 was modified under the designation SK SL6 at the request of Blohm and Voss to flight test the so-called "Arrow Wing" arrangement evolved by Dr Richard Vogt and his chief aerodynamicist, George Haag. This arrangement called for the provision of short booms which, attached to the tips of a moderately swept wing, each carried a half tailplane and an elevator. This highly unorthodox layout was featured by several projected Blohm and Voss fighters, including the P 208, P 210, P 212 and P 215, and during 1944 the SK SL6 undertook a number of test flights to prove the feasibility of the control surface arrangement.
