Virgin Galactic to drop Scaled Composites from SpaceShipTwo rocket testing - Aerospace Technology

Scaled Composites is reportedly being dropped from testing Virgin Galactic's new SpaceShipTwo (SS2) rocket.

Scaled Composites president Kevin Mickey told Los Angeles Times that the company will no longer be engaged in SS2 testing and would work as a consultant to Virgin Galactic.



Following the SS2 crash, Virgin modified the spacecraft based on the investigation findings.

Virgin Galactic has appointed Mark 'Forger' Stucky as pilot to its commercial flight team responsible for flying WhiteKnightTwo and SpaceShipTwo.
Consequences of the crash and / or disagreement how or if to proceed further?
