    I’ve seen 2 others in the last few years. I believe the last one I saw said a company was building them. Might be custom frame or maybe original if they were building them in the 80’s.

    Internal Body Aerodynamics

    Anyway, I’ll go back later and read the earlier posts. Like I said, I could be wrong, but it did stimulate some discussion, which is what these forums are for. :) One comment on AI, I think all the big scientific sites locked AI out unless they pay.
