The pilot flyingpulled back the thrust levers, and as a result, over the following 5seconds, N1 decreased from 64% to approximately 43%, where it remained until touchdown. The engine thrust was steady at approximately 43%N1, the TSB report explained. The air speed began to decrease, the TSB report said.

The jet- and rocket-powered aircraft exceeded expectations, performing better than predicted in high-speed wind tunnel testsparticularly in drag performance above Mach 0.85. Its test flights provided data that shaped the designs of later swept-wing military aircraft, including the Century Series of jet fighters.

THE RED AND WHITE JET WENT BY WITHOUT A SOUND. The tail section, minus horizontal stabilizer, came from a crashed TF-104G that was found in an Ontario, California junkyard. The horizontal stabilizer came from a wrecked F-104G. It could not be made official because of a failed FAI camera. IMPOSSIBLE.

A significant investment in heavy, water-jet cut steel tooling means repeatedly accurate wings come off the Composite Creations table. Just recognizable in the background is a horizontal stabilizer and one-piece elevator. Gweduck is also in the final design phase of things such as interior components (seats, etc.)
