I like that and my brain can't help thinking about a Voodoo for some reason

The tail's appearance and likeness to a Voodoo tail was purely fortuitous, Chris.  When I put the original DC-9 tail on, it looked too skinny and so I added some plasticard to increase the chord and lo!  Behold, we have a Voodoo like tail!   :thumbsup:

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I think you need an account at Secret Projects to see images linked from there.    :banghead:

Well that's just rude.
I must have created an account i've never used (it wouldn't be the first time - I like to make sure there can be no imposters) because I can see them.

I've an account on Secret Projects Forum and I'm seeing the 'x's too. You must have signed in forever Fred if you can see them

Edit: nope that doesn't work either, just went into SPF and I still see 'x's here.

I seem to remember from reading up the real story, one of the refinements for the aircraft was a rotating bomb bay...does yours have that?
The aircraft looks great...great work

The real-life B-57 had a rotating bomb-bay, which was a carry over from the XB-51.  It and the nose were the only refinements that Martin could convince the USAF to use on the B-57.   Mine of course, has it as well... ;)   :thumbsup:
