While still finishing the Blackbird, I started with another project : The North American XB-70 Valkyrie
Even though only 2 have ever flown, it is an aircraft I wanted to do for a while. When going supersonic the wings will move downwards, like the real deal, and it will have the other more usual xml codes.
Will try to get the Blackbird out soon, followed by this one. Next helicopters

This is one of these very special aircraft that I always wanted to see flying, Menno. Very much appreciated!!
Cheers,

The nose visor is not included (yet, model is not finished), the undercarriage sequence is there, it took some time to find out how it works and how to model it, as it ain't simple, but it works now.

Menno, looking good !! Please check your PMs
Here's a pic of the inauguration ceremony KPMD . The hanger where they were built can be seen just over in the distance just over the tail of the C-54
and a pic of the B-70 "assembly" line @ KPMD taken in Sept. 1961 .
Thank you, Santa-Menno!
