If anyone is looking for an interesting read, check this book out. Borders.com and all them online stores have it. Its a reprint of Bill Gunston's 1995 Osprey Encyclopedia and it has a load of interesting info. I'm reading this book and I keep finding some sort of weird or unusual aircraft that I had no idea existed. The Tsybin RSR/R-020 series looks like a ripoff of the SR-71 and SUNTAN spyplanes, would've had Mach 3 capability and almost touch 140,000 feet. Great stuff.
