Quotewhy not stalk out the landing gear like the B-58?
Because you could mount the pylons and engines on top of the wings instead like the new biz jet that Honda is trying to peddle or the Dutch or German airliner from the 60s who's name always escapes me.... :unsure:

That would be the Fokker-VFW 614

QuoteNot quite a bizjet, the BAe 146/Avro RJ is more of a regional jet:

Yes, but not quite what I meant. I meant a small jet with 4 engines installed on the back of the fuselage, in twin housings as on the VC-10 and Jetstar.
