Default ZZZZZZZoom in an ABC story?

I must have missed it in the news. Was there a 'RRL' demonstration
there? If so, how did it go?


My understanding is that they basically repeated Dick Rutan's demonstration from
five-six years ago...one aircraft, going around the pattern. No attempt to race
two aircraft.

The RRL basically got upstaged by the "Jet Pack." The mainstream media was
going to cover *one* story from Oshkosh, and the jet pack made far better video.

With the RRL now owning Velocity Aircraft, you wonder if they might get hit with
some lawsuits over the recent crash in Las Vegas. Velocity might be viewed as
having "deep pockets," now....
