Howdy!
It's been a while since I've seen any discussion of Birds of NeverWas or the various other names for bashing a model fo "what really was" into "what might have been", or whatever we want to call it.
I'm particularly looking for comments/suggestions about two particular birds: the X/YB-35 (or maybe X/YB-49) and the (maybe never was anyhow) SR-75.
I'm thinking about doing-up the B-35 prop-driven wing as a (land-based) US Navy patrol bomber--in USN colors and livery of the
1950s or 1960s (?) with turboprop engines, (a) radome(s) of some sort, and whatever else might be suitable to anti-surface and/or anti-sub operations.And I'm thinking about doing the SR-75 as a more-likley (?!?!) configuration with blunt wingtips, fuselage-attached vertical fins, no canard, multi-person canopy and/or in-line crew, and/or any of these and/or ???.
Feel free to suggest/comment/critique these ideas. I know I'm sorta nuts, already, so no need to reiterate that.
Thanx and regardz, Ken Leonard
