Last week, AVweb asked readers to go out an a limb and predict the
results of the X Prize race. At that time, SpaceShipOne had one
successful launch in the bag but had only 10 days to accomplish a second
launch. One week later, we know
how the X Prize
turned out -- and 70% of you guessed right! A more cautious 12% of
readers thought that 10 days was a short turnaround time for a successful
launch. 15% of respondents expressed some concern about last
Wednesday's roll. Only 3% of readers held out hope that one of the
other X Prize competitors might steal the $10 million Ansari prize at the
last minute.
*** THIS WEEK'S QUESTION ***
Controllers. If you've been reading AVweb recently, then you've
seen that there are some differences of opinion regarding what controllers
do all day and whether or not a shortage is imminent. Were you
appalled by
Jane
Doe's letter to AVweb? Were you appalled by
NATCA
President John Carr's public response?
