LOL...wonder if it will ever see the light of day...remember HOTOL in the 80's? British designed unmanned hypersonic plane originally to carry cargo but with later plans to become manned & eventually carry passengers. Excuse the pun ..but it never got off the ground as the engine was too heavy & moved the centre of gravity too far backwards(ooh the things you remember when you were a bit of a nerd...lol) Rob Nolli Illigitimi Carborundum!!!Current Builds: HMS Victory, SV Thermopylae
