Talk:SpaceShipOne flight 17P

X2

 * http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6110323/ Sept. 28, 2004 | 5:30 p.m. ET Lining up for space history: This event  known as "X1," as opposed to the "X2" flight tentatively scheduled for next Monday  has attracted far lighter advance crowds than June's historic SpaceShipOne flight. But Howard felt he had to be here in Mojave for the start of the prize run. http://www.xprize.org/ The X-Prize organization also calls it "X1", MSN had it as the X1 spaceshot in a newsblurb. X-Prize has it as the X1 Flight. http://www.xprize.org/press_room/press_releases/press.php?articleID=121 The second spacelaunch is called X2 (no Flight) in this press release. If you rewatch the 16P spaceflight, you'll note that at the press conference in front of SSO, Peter Diamandis calls it the X1 flight 132.205.15.4 15:16, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)

red stripe on the nose
A pre-flight image of SpaceShipOne shows a red stripe covering the nose and extending along the underside of the fuselage. What is this? Does it fly with it? (I haven't found an in-flight photo that was clear enough to tell.) If it does fly with it, which flight was the first to have it? Looks like it could be more thermal protection, matching what's on the leading edge of the wing, but I'm dubious about that. 195.167.169.36 08:57, 5 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Vandalism in this article?
In the "Spectacle" section of this article, the last entry lists:

Rick A Lick, special man

as one of the "distinguished attendees" of this SpaceShipOne flight. This smells like vandalism, agreed? If I receive no repies to the contrary, I will edit this out in a few days.
