Awesome! Was wondering when they were going to get around to that. Can't wait to see the first real test flight up to space!

The comments make me laugh, especially the one about someone pointing out what a flimsy looking design is and not believing it's safe to take into the air. The response killed me.

Quote:Perhaps you're right, perhaps the millions of pounds spent designing, testing and engineering this thing have been wasted and they in fact, haven't forseen such a fundamental issue and just made something that looks pretty! Wow! You should go tell them!
