Oh Ken, you just made my year!!!!!! I have been in fairly normal communication with a local SR-71 and B-58 pilot. He flies with the EAA Young Eagle program. When I gave a Cessna 172 model to the coordinator, he asked if there's a SR-71 model. I told him that I've been looking for a good one that wasn't super expensive. You, my friend, just solved that issue :D:D:D:D:D

Also, there is a difference in the back of the bird. The fuselage end on the A-12 is even with the trailing edge of the wing, while on the SR-71, there is a protrusion sticking out. While the M-21 version of the A-12 which carried the D-12 drone was a two place cockpit aircraft, it varied slightly from the single-place A-12 and the SR-71. Since there are numerous versions of the SR-71 and only Paragon's models of the A-12 available, why not model the A-12. From there you could split off to the YF-12 and M-21 version. Of course, those could lead to the SR-71 also...or vice-versa.

Just the promise of being able to watch this design and build take place is fantastic. I love the entertainment value of seeing a design/build thread! |

I keep repeating to myself "you're a car modeler"....and YOU keep doing some of my favorite aircraft. I'm doomed to add more to the stack. Can't wait to see it come together.
