"The SST: Here it comes, ready or not.
Douglas engineers envisioned this Mach 3 SST as delta-winged design with canard surfaces and fold-down wing-tips, a 130-passenger titanium civilian version of North American's B-70 Valkyrie bomber, in July 1962. In September 1963, Douglas notified the FAA it had decided to concentrate on DC-8 and DC-9 jets and withdrew from the SST competition.
