In another forum, someone showed me a concept drawing of a VTOL project that Chance Vought was working on. I questioned it a bit, and he responded with a link that had a more full explanation about the project.
In addition to that is a pic of the blue print drawings of this, and they are fairly clear and easy to understand.
Here it is, and see if you see the same potential for a whif as I do:

I dunno, but I think that if I consider it long enough, perhaps a model might be started.
