The tail number can be searched on the FAA website for status. It had an airworthiness certificate and was flying in the early 90’s i believe. There were more Grinvalds Orions made than the Aerodus Orion AA200. The tail number is N200AZ. The plane is located in Washington state USA.

I have book "Project Orion" by George Dyson (son of Freeman Dyson)
ISBN 0-140-27732-3

i open a new Thread in Secret Space Program call "Orion: Open question"
V1N4 covers early development. V1N5 will cover the USAF/NASA 10-meter designs. Further articles down the road will cover lunar logistics versions, 20-meter versions, large orions and Orion descendants.
Yes. I don't have my references here, but Orion was referenced in the press (Av Week, Missiles & Rockets, newspapaers, etc) in 1959 or 1960. Martin cranked out a lot of nuclear pulse artwork (mostly featuring internal detonations) in the same time period.
even Orion swim like Sea Dragon, there is another problem
the waterpressure would compress the shockabsorber bags!
had Cole ever a Idea how Aldebaran had to Take off from the Sea ?
Thanks a lot Orion and Robunos.
There are extreme diferences in price I can't understand for this book at amazon: 38$ to 140$

So I think I can order that at 38$.
