A very small turbojet on a very slippery sailplane as a launch/sustainer motor?

The jet-powered Salto H101...?

Open House should that be the case.

I'll try for the Northrop Scorpion Mel. But if it is, I'll have to make it open house.

Cheers. Night.

Good try Graeme. You are indeed correct. It is a Northrop F-89 Scorpian.

G'day Karl!

Thinking Junkers, but not sure how big this is? I'm taking a punt the photographer is on his back - and the exhausts are on the other side. The W-33....?
