Yes, I think you guys are right, I was trying to think where I had seen it and as soon as I read your replies I remembered it was in one of the Combat Aircraft issues from a couple od years ago I think:

Which begs two questions:

1. So, what is a "Squallus" then? (if Geoff thought it was similar, it also bears a look)

and

2. Does anyone make a kit of the Skyfox-----ah, forget it, I'll just cobble something together.

Too many cool ideas, too little time. 

P.S. Wikipedia has 3 pics of the prototype prior to having the engines installed:

The only " Squalus" I know of is the Promavia Jet Squalus, which looks totally different:

Oh man, that is fresh.  Like a civilian Tutor (only not).  It would fit in my garage (with some minor mods to the doors).  Thanks for those pics.
