Did it count? It only carried the pilot.


The X Prize requires space for three people but not that it carry three
people. A pilot and the equivalent ballast of two people is sufficient for
a qualifying flight.



Not only that but it seems to be aerobatic as well. What a glorious sight


I believe, to be perfectly correct, that it demonstrated that it's not
just aerobatic, but astrobatic once it crossed the 100km mark. :-)

What a glorious sight indeed!
