I can remember when seeing these wasn't unusual...nowadays?...not so
much.


The one taking off with JATO bottles must
have been a heck of a ride.

And then there is the taildragger version
in here somewhere........


Found this interesting photo of Fred Weick's first design...and of course the
'twin'...sorta like the twin Mustang.
