It's that rare occasion when I found an image, and knew that the object is in a local musuem... The Ryan X-13

Ryan x-13, possibly the only vertical launch, and vertical landing aircraft. How they landed that ono it's hook to tower.. I'm sure ground control must have helped instructions

I can't recall where I found the above image

Above image is with the aircraft in the museum

If you want to see a really cool museum, of aircraft, spacecraft, and a lot of cool WW1 planes, next time you are traveling in San Diego, go to the San Diego Air and Space Museum in Balboa Park
