Apparently this craft can boost enough speed to fly off into space without the aid of rocket boosters! That and its companions are very shmup looking I say. If that's not cool then what is? The White Knight & Spaceship One merged in flight Cool Squadron formation Flying over a wind generator field The White Knight Spaceship One in Flight Spaceship One & horizon Spaceship One beating the sound barrier & earth's gravitational pull! Space Ship One in Space 1945 Strikers II Squadron?
