Essentially its two airplanes joined together at the wingtips, and that is the area they will hang the loaded SpaceShipTwo on?
I’m all for exploration and expanding the envelope, but in my opinion this whole project is a catastrophe waiting to happen. count me out on this one.

What am I missing here? 18,000 feet at 161 mph is not really very impressive. Many small every day single engine planes can do this.
