I watched the fantastic coverage of SpaceShipOne's historic flight
yesterday
and was truly impressed. I've long thought of Burt Rutan as the last of
the
pioneers, and this one cements it. However, did I really see a Beech
Starship
flying past also? I though Beech (or parent company) had withdrawn these.
Anyone know what it was up to?
No, you didn't really see a Beech Starship flying past. You saw the
proof-of-concept forerunner to the Beech Starship that was built by Rutan's
Scaled Composites flying past.
