IIRC this a/c appeared in an old movie, "Test Pilot" if memory serves.
It was called the Gilbert X-20 or some such thing and the hero had
problems with the skin wrinkling up in 4 - G turns. Does anybody
else remember the movie, or what the correct name was?

The previous picture is evidently a frame grab from the movie. "Toward
the Unknown", 1956.
