From 2001: Space Odyssey
Operated by Pan American World Airways, the Orion III orbiter is part of a two-stage-to-orbit spaceplane system which shuttles passengers to space stations in Earth orbit. Like the movie, this vehicle features jet engines nested within the wings for atmospheric flight and two aerospike rockets for space flight.
Rocket assisted take off is required. I recommend saving jet fuel for landing, stall speed is a little high and requires throttle to maintain.
Probably will make an RSS TSTO system out of this sometime in the future.
