    I would love to see an XB-70, preferably bigger than the Nicesky, but I’ll take any Valkyrie I can get! Twin 70-80 would really be something, with a removable nose section for transport.

                This delta version of the F-16 has always intrigued me. I’d like mine in 80mm please!

                            Did you ever see the photo of the F-16 that had one regular, production wing, and one of the "Arrow" wings for the F-16XL? I worked for General Dynamics, back when they were experimenting with the XL variant, and one of the company newsletters had a photo of the plane. Really bizarre looking.

                              Hoomi, that's very interesting to me that you worked at General Dynamics during that time. I'd love someone to make a nice sized mass production F-16XL someday. Its "cranked arrow" wing is so distinctive! I'd actually really love the asymmetrical wing version that was part of the later test programs. There aren't many asymmetrical jets out there, aside from the Rutan, but I much prefer the aforementioned F-16 testbed.

                                I still have my "We're General Dynamics and Proud of it" button.

                                I worked at the Pomona Division for a little over 12 years, before we got transferred by Hughes to Tucson.
