It was not a stunt or a cartoon. It was the Nemeth Parasol, one of the strangest aircraft that ever actually left the ground &mdash; and, briefly, one that seemed to work.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Instead of the long, straight wings of a normal aircraft, the Parasol carried a single circular wing, roughly 15 feet across, perched on struts above the fuselage like a lid on a saucepan.

Nemeth, a flight instructor from Dayton, Ohio, who built the machine with students at the University of Miami using the lengthened fuselage of an Alliance Argo biplane and a modest 110-horsepower Warner radial engine. His circular wing was not just for show: a big, low-loading disc, he reasoned, would let the aircraft fly very slowly, take off and land in almost no distance, and behave gently when it ran out of speed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img data-opt-id=1046351107  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/nemeth-parasol-3.jpg\" alt=\"The Nemeth Parasol on the ground\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">The Nemeth Parasol&rsquo;s circular wing sat on struts above a converted biplane fuselage. Photo: press image, 1934<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On paper the numbers were remarkable. The Parasol was said to unstick in about 63 feet, and when it stalled, the big wing let it mush down to a soft landing rather than dropping a wing and spinning. Nemeth pitched it as an aeroplane so docile and compact that it could live in a large garage and be flown by almost anyone.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #1565c0;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;A novice pilot could learn to fly the Parasol in thirty minutes.&rdquo;<\/em><div style=\"margin-top:10px;font-size:14px;color:#555\"><strong>Steven P.

The Parasol genuinely flew, and reasonably well, reaching around 135 mph despite that ungainly wing. The press of the day, from Modern Mechanix to Popular Science, ate it up, and you can see in it an early flicker of the &ldquo;everyman&rsquo;s aeroplane&rdquo; and even flying-car dreams that would resurface after the war.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img data-opt-id=1565299527  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/nemeth-parasol-flight.jpg\" alt=\"The Nemeth Parasol in flight\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">The Parasol in the air over Miami, 1934 &mdash; the &ldquo;flying umbrella&rdquo; that actually flew.

It was later modified &mdash; the control surfaces moved, the fuselage shortened, a larger engine fitted &mdash; and then it simply slipped out of the record, its ultimate fate unknown. Perhaps it was even converted back into the ordinary biplane it had started as.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fIFyBU83kME\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;border-radius:8px\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Nemeth Parasol never founded a dynasty of round-winged aircraft.
