Post by: galgot on October 06, 2015, 02:07:48 AM
Hi,
I've been kindly invited by GTX to post these images of mine here.
As the the title says, it's a Boeing 2707-200 SST 3d model. Hope You'll like it, and that it could give some inspiration :)

I remember about 45 years ago seeing a table stacked high with 10's of this kit:

I regret now not having the hissy fit of all hissy fits and holding my breath until my parent to bought the whole table. Sigh.

When I was at uni they had bound editions of flight magazine going back to the late 50s, I vaguely recall some articles on the US SST program, quite interesting stuff.

Hard to say...
I started it mid august, during the holidays, working every days on it , but it was variable, one i would work 2 hours, and the other the all day long…  Back to the office beginning of september, so work was slower.
And finished end of september.

Sorry for late response.
Yes, from mid august to end of september. Posted these images on the first of october on secret project forum... So that's a month an half. Well not counting the time I've been collecting documentation on the thing, started that long time ago.

Were the afterburners used in cruise or just to break the sonic barrier, as with Concorde?

Welcome bols59, the Wikipedia page on the 2707 has links to Flight magazine articles on the
final config, the 2707-300, with details of the nacelles, overall the design was technically more
advanced than the Concorde and used positionable shock-cones and other devices in a manner
not disimilar to the SR-71. Looking at the info it looks like the augmented thrust was primarily
intended for take-off.
