Now that is interesting, bang goes less kits in 2021. AMP do some interesting kits. Been slowly reading 'Into the Black' that has some info on the project

Like your article very much...and the video! A while back I built the 1/72 Anigrand X-20...it needed a lot of correction....making it a companion build with the Skylancer, as Neil Armstrong evolved abort tactics in the latter. I made a what-if article out of it (published in SAMI) in which Armstrong flew the X-20 into orbit. Hi have lost track of the article but I vaguely remember the X-20 being used as a rescue craft in another scenario! Definitely up for this one...

For anyone looking for reference:

 

Scott Lowther's Aerospace Projects Review V3N4

https://www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/772981

 

Roy Houchin's ARA Press "Dynasoar"

http://www.arapress.com/dyna-soar-book/

 

Are both pretty required reading, with plenty of good plans and illustrations to boot.

 

Robert Godwin's Apogee Press "Dynasoar: the NASA Mission Reports"

https://www.cgpublishing.com/Books/Dynasoar.html

 

is a compilation of many official publications on Dynasoar, and has the CD-ROM with videos on, albeit in very dated formats.

 

When I wrote my piece, back in 1991, none of these were published, though I did manage to get hold of most of the documents in the latter from Boeing Archives, NASA History Office and the AF Academy...

 

best,

M.
