Hey David, what's the story behind the photo of the Lightning nearly getting nuked on the previous page?
Martin I was actually "thinging" of the Lockheed AL 60...but no....

If you mean page 650, it's a high altitude Redtop missile shot against a drone.
It's farther away than it looks - probably about a mile or a little less. Both the shooter and the camera chase went a little closer than normal to get both the blast and the shooter in the same frame..Seemples.
BTW, both Lightnings were supersonic at the time.

OK.. clue time.
It was a one-off, the third in a series by the designer. For a while it was leased by a reasonably well known airline. There are photos on the net of it but my SC was scanned.
