My dad wanted me to post this question:
Are there any 1/144 scale models of the X-15 experimental aircraft?
I did a little searching, and all I found was an expensive die-cast 'replica' and an old Monogram model in 1/72nd.
Is there anything else out there?

Other than the ones you mentioned (and the Monogram kit is apparently very good) there is an old (1/64) Revell offering. Also, although it's not 1/144, Special Hobby offers a 1/48 example (only AU$30 at NKR Models). I believe that one is alright too.
Oh, this quick thread may help.
