It really is a brilliant design, when you think about it.

Kudos again to Rutan and his team.

My first thought upon seeing WK2 was of that old "dual P-51" design.

Must be kind of strange banking in the WK2 since the pilot will be
sitting well off the center line.

I wonder if there are dual controls in the WK2 and what happens when
pilots at either side disagree as to where to go

Think of it as flying VERY tight formation:-)

I wonder how rigid are the connections between the fuselages. Would
look bad if they´d fail in bad turbulance.
