VIRGIN GALACTIC EXHIBIT AT JACK BARCLAY SHOWROOM |
 |
Speaking about the event, Derek Bennett, General Sales
Manager at Jack Barclay, said: "Virgin's vast experience in aviation,
adventure, luxury travel and cutting-edge design combined with the
unique technology undertaken by the company will ensure an unforgettable
experience for passengers, unlike any previously available to mankind."
Speaking about the new spaceship on display at the launch, Sir Richard
Branson, who attended the event said: "The designs of both the mothership
and the new spaceship are absolutely beautiful and surpass any expectations
for the future of commercial spaceflight that we had when first registering
the name Virgin Galactic in 1999. We are planning to launch as soon as
possible, but only when we are happy with the results of the exhaustive
WhiteKnightTwo and SpaceShipTwo test flight programme which is scheduled
to begin following the unveil of the prototypes. All being well commercial
operations should start little over a year later."
