Bell X-2 Plan Views

[Epsilon9]

Hi, I was thinking about designing my own Bell X-2 in the near future, and I needed some plan views or elevations of the vehicle in order to help design it. Google searching doesn't seem to have done much for me. Preferably, I would like JUST the design plans, not an entire book (Unless that book is a rather good book about the vehicle) so I won't have to be buying really anything to design this. If anyone could help me out with obtaining some plans that'd be great. Thanks if you do. (I hope this is in the right board).

this is a pay service, but you may find what you are looking for at a reasonable price.

I think its a great plan view for what I need. I'm going to try a few approaches to figure out what works best. I will probably try Paragon's method with this one.
