Anybody remember the name of a wood airframe German fighter airplane

Channel, it was supposed to be a terror in the air but the Germans
couldn't
put it into production because the vibration shook the wood joints apart
unless they used a special glue. The factory that made the glue was
bombed,
the formula burned up in the fire, and the glue chemists apparently
killed in the attack.


Can't help with the German glue, but the Brits used Aerolite 306.

BTW, I still have some.

It's still in production. Good rundown on it at
