I see a press release about the commercial manned vehicles getting closer to
flight tests, but realistically, will there be actual customers for three
different systems when it comes down to the line?
I'm still not sure what Boeing is doing. Being the biggest and presumably
best connected of the three, one has a sneaking suspicion they might get the
contract for Nasa. Dragon is well advanced as well, and seems to be fairly
popular on the ground, so to speak, butthe Dream Chaser,w which is a winged
vehicle, seems to have lurched from mishap to mishap as one might expect for
an innovative idea developed from scratch. Where does this fit in exactly
and who is footing the no doubt large bill?
