McDonnell Douglas XF-85 Goblin

I want some more info on this superb little plane. It's here for CFS1, http://www.simviation.com/cfs1mod2.htm, looks like this: Image and seems to be extremely rare! I know that Ken (RifleMan) has actually touched one, so he must know a bit. I would particularly apreciate panel photos, and a later sim version.

Sorry for not being much help to you Dan, but when I was in Dayton, I used film and didn't have the good fortune to shoot all I wanted, the way digital photog affords......
.........also missing in my depths of the past, is the shot of me standing with my foot on the nose wheel of an original B-1A and another shot of me standing leaning up against the Streak Eagle.....thats the one which did 0-100,000ft in 3 1/2 mins.....

Gee, I really wish I could travel back in time to re-shoot some of those shots......... :-[
