I assume the scope, wings, and winglets are for the normal atmospheric take off and landings

Shrox - how many replies do you need before you pull the trigger on the kits?
We want it!

And more when you have other kits!

So pretty much the last mile of a multi-thousand mile trip. Duh. Good thing this craft is fictional and cool!

That is one cool-looking rocket! Love to have one! There are some others in another thread that would be interesting as well... Harrier?

Welcome back!

Doug,

Are you going to sell your new designs under your own company or go through an existing rocket manufacturer?

Well, ain't that the pot calling the kettle's cellphone...I'd better add more minutes or I'll miss the call!

Right now I am looking for a nose cone supplier. That's the most expensive part of a kit, and is kind of the one thing I have to work around as far as designs are concerned.
