The Hindenburg
The Hindenburg is considered one of the worst aircraft designs of all time. It’s known infamously for the fact that it caught on fire and crashed brutally in 1936 while trying to land in New Jersey. It was later discovered that the plane crashed due to an electrostatic discharge that set the hydrogen gas on fire.

The BE-2 wasn’t given much of a fighting chance to succeed, as there were many huge flaws discovered right from the start. The plane had a difficult time maneuvering quickly, a struggling engine, and a blocked pilot’s view due to the gunner being in the front. During World War I, German Pilots shot down these planes with ease, which made the planes useless in war.
