AWST is not a gossip rag, but a very well respected industry publication. I've always been a fan of the XB-70. Nice to think it might not have been the wasteful program that some have said. :)

If it did get shelved, that might account for some of MarkC's recent information. ;)

The XB70 at Dayton is awesome!! What a bird for the time it was built. I imagine it was a bear to taxi since the nose gear was about 50 feet beind the cockpit.
