On "The DEW Line" blog that poster is in full detail

I don't have much against that concept (except the rather large footprint) although I'm curious what Nick have to say about it, as - paraphrasing his words - this one have all the parts of a Chinook and F-8 Crusader.

I wonder if someone working on that concept thought about giving those wings enough lift to let it glide at least into survivable crash in case of one, or both rotor gearboxes seizures/catastrophic failures, as this design would provide such possibility.
