I started this years ago and it would keep getting pushed to the shelf of doom. It was missing landing gear so I have to do it in flight. I've also completely rescribed it since it had raised panel lines.

I'm also trying to decide whether or not to add the engines on top or not. Not very "stealthy" with them up there. But if I don't add them, what do I do with the spots they were to go in?

Well lets see now... Aurora is the rumored SR-71 replacement. So it has to beat Mach 3+ speed and 80,000+ feet service ceiling. At those speeds and that altitude, Stealth is a secondary requirement. Engagement times are minimal. No SR-71 was ever successfully engaged, although it was tried.

I cannot say enough great things about the Ammo sanding sticks. In just a short amount of time today, I got the nose sanded and looking so much better.

Very cool project! Is that the one that uses the Pulse Detonation Wave Engines?

I don't think I have ever seen or read about this. You are off to a great start!
