These are the instructions to build a Boeing X-20 Dyna-Soar as an alternative payload for the Titan 3C (see earlier updates). The X-20 programme was cut but advanced enough that astronauts were selected and undergoing training. Boeing built and displayed a mock-up X-20 in Las Vegas and started to manufacture the vehicle. There could have been a space plane operating in the 1960’s if the programme had gone ahead. Unlike my other projects and models this unfortunately never flew, there were plans for Titan 2 and 3C configurations but these artist impressions were drawn before the Titan 3C design was finalised. Replacing the MOL and Gemini B of the Titan 3C with the X-20 Dyna-Soar gives a good representation of what might have been. If you want to build this with the optional display stand I have included a graphic for the labels. This should be printed so that they are 32mm wide.
