Put your name down now if you want some stand by tickets - there might be some no-shows!

Oh god, how terrible. When I heard, last night, that the test flight had crashed I had somehow wrongly assumed no one was on board.That poor man and his family.

Another ironic tragedy occurred here in the U.S., day before yesterday, SJ… Wichita, Kansas is known as the center of all things general aviation (home of Cessna, Beechcraft and Lear Jet) and Flight Safety International operates a large complex of aircraft simulators for training purposes not associated with airlines. A Beechcraft King Air 200 (seen here: http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5f/Beechcraft_Super_King_Air_B200_vr.jpg&imgrefurl=http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beechcraft_King_Air&h=194&w=259&tbnid=7-PU65Wjkxw8tM:&zoom=1&tbnh=150&tbnw=200&usg=__UbHPd0KI9uVLI9CIpoklgjOHv_w=&docid=ry7954ILhqRXZM&itg=1&client=safari&ved=0CKkBEMo3&ei=u-5UVL6bDo32yQTK5oCYBg )(apologies for long address) apparently experienced an engine failure shortly after takeoff and crashed into one of the simulator buildings, killing three people in a simulator (plus the pilot who was alone). Imagine being a pilot but losing ones life while in an aircraft simulator?

That`s bad luck, Clanad
Re the spacecraft - I think it`ll be a long time before the FAA grant them a licence (if at all)
