The Bombardier Dash 8
This plan was spoken about by Jalopnik who said, “They use these to get across the smaller islands with a SMall landing strip.”He continued with the features, I can deal with the loud propeller noise and the tossing and turning by crosswinds, but what gets me the most is the fact that these planes cannot hold the luggage of every passenger on board for weight reasons. Ideally, the solution is to tell persons to carry less luggage but most persons taking these smaller planes are transferring from 757 or other planes.”

ME-163 Komet
The Germans experimented with this plane at the end of World War II. It was much faster than other planes and had a lot of disadvantages. One of which being that Pilots could not stay in the air for longer than three minutes. This was because the planes could not hold enough fuel. They would come to abrupt landings and be free to be shot at.
