Many thanks for the extra information and links (although I'm not sure why you think I might be interested ... ). You've certainly found some good stuff so far.I wonder where astronautix got their info from? The "deplyable wings for final approach" is a bit of a tease ...The whole area of lenticular design is new to me, but as you say very interesting. I think the Georgia concept is worth it's own more detailed post and adding to the spaceplanes list I'm trying to construct. But it'll have to wait as I'm away with only intermittent access at the moment.Update 22/06/10: I have now created a post for the Georgia Tech lenticular REV and added it to the spaceplanes list (I'm not going to get into any debates about whether it really is a plane )
