Zborowski thought every businessman would need one in the future ....

How on earth would the buisness men get into the cockpit!

Talk of coincidences, I came across two of the Revell SSTs only last week - maybe I should get one and do it up as an Airforce 1 bird?

The first pic is stunning... when seeing it I thought it was a 3-D rendering (or is it ?)

What a strange nose! Concorde dropping nose was heavy and bulky, I just can't imagine the weight of this one...
If there's two models in the box, something interesting would be changing one into the -300 final variant with the delta wing...
Hell, I saw this kit at the shop various times, but didn't buy it -I know what to do now

Greg , just to let you know the three pictures of the Hanneton III you provided do not connect (I had much trouble myself picking up the sub variants) the left and center versions are Hanneton IIIA1 (BTZ 511-07), the one on the right -from the patent- is Hanneton III  (BTZ 511-05) . All are identical except the positionning of the two Marcadau engnes :
III = engine in the fuselage behind the cockpit (access to the cockpit through a floor door
IIIA1 = engine in the fuselage under the cockpit (so side doors for cockpit access )
IIIA2 = engine in pods on the side of the annular wing

I thought myself of doing the second model as the 2707-200 with the moustaches but it also meant elongating the tail so I went the easy way : straight from the box.
