July 28, 200916 yr Hi thereFirstly I am not trying to start arguments just trying to find opinions and points of view.1. Do you agree with the Virgin Galactic program?2. Do you agree with the American Airlines and British Airways merger?My thoughts on Virgin Galactic are that I personally think it could be the worst mistake in Science and Aviation/Space travel history.50 years ago aviation was an incredible experience and to us aviation enthusiasts it still is.But to the rest of the public aviation is a normal part of life and sitting on a plane for more than 2 hours is their idea of hell.Is this how space may become?With NASA working on sending man back to the moon and mars space will become an amazing thing to watch and learn but I fear with Virgin Galactic man will simply become "bored" of space like we did with aviation.It may seem like a giant leep forward but afterwards what is their left for man to acomplish?I don't know what to say on this other than perosnally I am for it but I am interested on hearing other opinions.Thank youRichy David Andrew - desert based - a330/350 rated.
