Yes the NASA lifting bodies and flying wings of the Horton brothers did fly, they are on the sheet as reference or things from which inspiration are taken. Not in anyway trying to pass them off as my work, I'm not that old!
At the time I was fascinated by the prospect of fitting a centrifugal fan similar to a hovercraft's to an aircraft for VOLT take off and landing. Also very much influenced by "The Flying Sub" of the Seaview from the 1960's TV show "Voyage to the bottom of the sea". Just having fun with clay and sketching a lot.
