A Robert McCall Painting that is new to me. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. I do use either Google or Bing on one screen while entering catalog information on the other. I had tried variations of XP-63D on Bing and had been getting "No Results" for some reason. I did not get any useable information on any tail number searches I had run earlier while cataloging...

It took a while, but here is a scan of the Little Henry fuselage mockup photo. Still no additional information on this one. Edit - Replaced the image with a better quality image.

I have found the presentation that goes with the NASA Knowledge Capture document I mentioned earlier. It runs about an hour and forty minutes. http://wn.com/gemini_spacesuit Some interesting bits of information to be mined from this one.

You know, that idea had potential as the first corporate glider. That is unless one, or the other, component were to be redesigned to hold the engines.
