Happily, Paul Allen and Burt Rutan's SpaceShipOne took to the skies during the Saturday afternoon Air Show.
Rutan addressed the crowd and some of his remarks can be heard in my 20MB Quicktime Video clip of the aircraft's flight.
My favorite Rutan line, sort of an interesting contrast to the big government space shuttle approach: "We bought the engines on e-bay".
