This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

For the life of me I can't remember the designation of this thing. Kind of like a mini B-58. I belive it's in a museum somewhere in the U.S. Appreciate any info/link.

That would be the McDonnell model 119, later renamed the model 220.

Wasn't it up for sale just a few months ago? I remember seeing a photo of it on one of the on-line aircraft brokerages. I didn't even know it still existed.

Yes, that was the designation and rather than looking like a B-58, it looked more like a mini Convair 880 or 990. It was the only biz jet concept with four separate underwing engine pods, like the 707, DC-8, CV880 and CV990.
I have a photo of it, but don't know how to post it on this board, and I am leaving about "O'dark thirty" in the morning for Kenosha,WI and eventually OSH.
