Default Akaflieg Karlsruhe AK-X

Oops... I meant AK-X and not SB-13 at the end of my last post.
Meanwhile, TW seems to confirm my suspicions. The Me 163 had a
much lower aspect ratio, and a much stiffer wing than the Horten
designs. This probably eliminated the pitch oscillation issues from
the start..
