One of the first plastic models I built was the X-3. Thought it was the most cool looking airplane I had seen.

Did not find out it was a gutless wonder with inertia coupling issues until decades later.

It’s time to figure this out. It takes as long to fly to Europe as it did 1962. The concord sorta worked but the problems made it unsuitable, there must be way to do this.
