White Knight Two - We are living at the dawn of private spceflight. (Many pics)

[The IC]

Last Friday, my son, my father, and I headed up to Oshkosh to EAA's Airventure.

I had a wonderful opportunity to see Scaled Composite's White Knight Two close up and in action.  Here are some pics that I took.  They plan on bringing Spaceship 2 next year.  Sir Richard Branson, himself, flew the plane to Oshkosh.

Eve is the plane's actual name, and it was amazing to see in person, and to be a part of history.

Enjoy.  If you would like a hi res pic, let me know.

It must have been really cool to see up close. I'm envious. Where can I sign up for a ticket?

Thanks for the link. $200,000(corrected) for a ticket. Hmmm..... does a person really need two kidneys?
