{{stub}} {{infobox Aircraft |image = |name = Hughes XF-11 |type = prototype reconnaissance |livery = |fdm = YASim |status = on CVS |authors = |fgname = <tt> </tt> |download = }} The Hughes XF-11 was an experimental 1940s reconnaissance aircraft by Hughes aircraft. A crash in 1946 nearly killed the test pilot Howard Hughes. [http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/XF-11_crash_site.htm] This 1946 version had 2 counter-rotating props powered by 2 piston engines, which is the FG version. Note that the designation is not part of the later F-# fighter sequence; in that sequence see Grumman F-11 Tiger (formerly F11F Tiger under the Navy's designation before 1962). ==Links== *[http://www.airbornegrafix.com/HistoricAircraft/Design/XF11.htm XF-11 design (airbornegrafix.com)] *[http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/XF-11_crash_site.htm Hughes XF-11 Crash (check-six.com)] *[http://helijah.free.fr/flightgear/hangar.htm Helijah's Hangar] (FG XF-11 author) *[http://helijah.free.fr/flightgear/les-appareils/xf11/appareil.htm Helijah XF-11] *[[Table of models]] {{Hughes}} [[Category:Aircraft]] [[Category:Historical aircraft]]
