Well, it was actually the FedEx driver .. but my Special Hobby X-15A-2 with dolly and tanks arrived today. First look is very positive. Read a lot of reviewsand build articles and I'm looking forward to starting this project.
My first post and I hope many more.

Hi William
Firstly Welcomeyou are joining a great bunch.
Secondly:The X-15 is the greatest flying machine ever bar none
Thirdly If you need reference material I'd 'suggest getting the APOGEE BOOK on the X-15 Amazon should still have it the acompanying CD is great,and also the spacecraft films DVD set on the X-15 hours and hours of footage foryour viewing pleasure
Regards
Chris
