My next projects will be the Lockheed SR-71 followed by the U-2. My goal
is to build all three of the Skunkworks famed planes.

Doh... true, it's not a Lockheed... ironically I was going to say an SR-71
blackbird, but then I figured you'd try to do that in the same scale, which
would end up a monstrous over 100 studs long! And the U-2 spyplane just
doesn't have the same futuristic look of the others (it looks like a giant
glider!)... but yeah, do all the SkunkWork's planes, as well as the more
recent stealths (Yf-23 Black Widow, F-22 Raptor, B-2)!

Originally I had them place back to back on 2x2 bricks with technic pins
connecting the bricks - but this left a visible gap. I asked around
Lugnet, and someone posted a brilliant solution to hold the bricks
together internally with 1x2 panels - which made the wedge seamless.
Heh... I saw that post too... so THAT's what you wanted the solution for! (I
was going to offer the '2x2 with technic side pin has an axel hole through
it' solution, but somebody already beat me to it. Plus it didn't suffice for
what you had planned.
