| #2 First of all, it's a mockup. Second, we're in a train wreck with ISS already because Clinton started a policy that we're supposed to buy Soyuz for the station, but there's also legislation that we can't buy from the Russians because of their deals with Iran. |

| #1 The actual first test flights of the vehicle, perhaps about 2010 Bwahahaha! I also understand they have a bridge in New York for sale. On a more serious note, this looks like a shuttle - who needs more 1970s technology? The sooner governments get out of this business the better. Let Scaled Composites and others develop the technology then buy it. |
