Thanks for the JAS pic. In any colors, the MD-90 rocks!

Just as this is a fantasy model, so are any of the SST's you've been producing/conceptualizing. None of them made it past mock-up, and most stayed in the design stage. This is a fascinating look at what could have been. I hope you design some airliners based on the Aurora project and sub-orbital aircraft. This is really cool stuff here.
