I think the Colorado and Lunt scopes use solid etalons, the surfaces are mirrored which works the same way as the separated internal surfaces of an air spaced etalon. This was one of the big things that allowed Colorado and Lunt to bring the price down. Only two surfaces have to be flat and polished accurately instead of four.
