The parking lot at NASA Dryden is a virtual museum of X-planes...here's a quick survey.
I'd be very interested in hearing the background to X-29 and A.L.F. - even the NASA Public Affairs Officer wasn't sure what the significance is.
Forgot these...
Great Pics Alan!!!!!
Great stuff, thanks for sharing these 8)

Each X-29 had a mascot. One was ALF. The other was a Red Bull.
If I get more details I will pass them along.
