I have walked around the prototype on the flight line at MFR, and took photos of it in Feb 2007

I discovered this article yesterday and realized it is very incomplete. I am busy expanding it, which can take some time. When I finished I will to the cleanup work.

No problem, and thanks. It's looking good so far. When you are actually doing a series of edits, you might want to use the {{

I'm pretty sure there was an article in Flying on the Skyfox back when the type was a going concern. If anybody can find it, it might prove a useful resource.

My father Russell O’Quinn designed this aircraft. There are several inaccurate statements in the article which I could correct. I’m unfamiliar with the process to make corrections on Wikipedia. The Skyfox was never a Boeing product. It was owned by the Skyfox Corporation. It was simply under an agreement or contract with Boeing for a period of time to explore potential prospective sales. Boeing ended the contract.

The camouflage paint scheme was the result of a potential US Army interest in the Skyfox as a long range escort ship. Extensive demonstrations were conducted at Fort Rucker, AL and at Fort Huachuca, AZ.

The prototype has not been donated to the Palm Springs Air Museum. It has been placed on loan by Russell O’Quinn and family and is being prepared for static display in 2022. 2603:8001:1B02:6900:C053:8D2D:69A4:CCF4 (talk) 03:54, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
