The AP-76 was one of the neatest-looking of the X-15 contenders... and also the poorest performer of the bunch. Looks ain't everything.
BLATANT COMMERCIALISM WARNING....
Along with the AP-76, I just added a slew of new items. The AP-76 report is a prime example of how a design *should* be...

According to Vaclav Němeček in his book “Civilní letadla 2” the drawing gives an impression of a DC-10 variant, but he didn’t mention a D-… number. Is anyone able to supplement the designation?
Gentlemen,
Is there anyone of you who haves ever seen illustrations of the
6-engined initial design for the XB-19 ?
(3-view or artists impression)
Thanks in advance..
