you have got to be having a serious lend of everyone with that "concept" drawing, or "concept" photoshop.

it looks to me as if I can spot at least five different aircraft types there from the first ME 262 through to the F 105, sorry, also the glass of the A6.

fair dinkum, it was a good laugh.

but, i can say that anyone who has tried to fly a rotorcraft even with 2 degrees more lead than they are supposed to have and think for one milli-second that lead as portrayed in your "concept" will not destroy the rotor system as soon as pitch is pulled is pulling more than fantasy could ever allow, even in Dr Who.

Of course that is providing that the rotor systems were set up "on the floor" to be exactly neutral at flat pitch, otherwise there would have been broken glass everywhere.
