20-437: A height of 1,000 metres. On 13 March 1931, Tiling and his co-worker, Karl Poggensee, succeeded in the launch of a solid-propellant rocket. The rocket flew for 11 seconds and reached a height of 1,800 metres. Further rocket launches were undertaken in the following weeks. The break-through experiment occurred on 15 April 1931, when Tiling demonstrated a post office rocket which carried 188 postcards reliably. Further tests showed
30-539: A rocket and land with swinging-out wings. This principle was similarly used by NASA for flights of the Space Shuttle . His innovation also allowed him to develop rockets which had the necessary thrust and burning duration for flight. In 1929, Gisbert Freiherr von Ledebur (1899–1980) allowed Tiling the use of a workshop in Ahrenshorst. In June 1929, some successful demonstrations were completed during which missiles reached

70-615: The beginning of the First World War . In 1915, he volunteered as a fighter pilot in the newly created German Luftstreitkräfte . In 1926, Tiling became flight director of the now defunct airfield Netter Heide in Osnabrück.

Tiling developed re-usable rocket planes which start as
80-753: The efficiency and reliability of his rockets. The rockets became famous in Germany and attracted large public interest. This attracted the attention of the Reichsmarine who had been developing rockets for military use since 1929. Despite the support of friends and sponsors, Tiling's work was beset by financial difficulties. On 10 October 1933, the overheating of the powder needed to power the rocket created an explosion in Tiling's workshop in Ahrenshorst; Tiling, his assistant Angela Buddenboehmer, and his mechanic Friedrich Kuhr suffered heavy burns.
