I'd forgotten about a cover picture for a star trek novel.
Now that you mention it seems like I remember buying a used star trek novel with a badly damaged front cover that looked vaguely like a SR-71.
The front cover had a SR-71, but if I remember the novel said it was the Space shuttle Enterprise that had the super/Ultra warp drive installed.
Can't remember the name, but do remember the plot.
This researcher ?klingon? living on earth developes a new warp theory and builds "Transwarp" or maybe a hyper slipstream warp drive.
Seems like the university he worked at had access to the a old space shuttle called Enterprise and he built his transwarp drive into it.
Klingon operatives and other star nation operatives find out about his research and all are trying to kidnap him and steal his prototype.
He test the drive on the Space Shuttle enterprise and outruns every thing trying to catch him.
He comes back to earth and destroys his notes and the drive to keep both the federation and empire from getting it.
Anyone remember the name of this Novel?
FOUND IT and my memory was wrong about the cover.
"Flag Full of Stars" and it shows a Federation saucer chasing the space shuttle on the cover.
