  2. My entry requirement for this list I suppose is a similarity to the original C21 Space Glider or the SpaceX NASA Glider. I've been debating whether to include the DOVE ship from Anderson's Doppelganger movie http://www.monstersinmotion.com/cart/sci-fi-as-in-science-fiction-item-list-a-e-c-9_185/dove-spacecraft-doppleganger-model-kit-p-4992
    What do you think?

  3. Is this glider similar to the 'test plane' crashed by Col.Steve Austin in 'The Six Million Dollar Man' ?

  4. The opening credits showed an actual crash of one of the x planes, think it was the x24. From memory, I'm sure it showed the hl10 plane too, so yes very similar!

  5. Found this very basic but neat paper model of the M2-F2 in 1/32 scale, enjoy !
