Space tourism, and the unspoken US victory in space

yea and a 737 around $40-$60 million,

Wings would come off if you went into atmosphere at anything over 1000 mph
probably, hehe but suppose you slow down a bit from orbital speed in the
relatively air free high altitude?

Remeber we need to see how to adjust for the challenges, not translate one
product directly to another use without compensating. I'm I saying to use a
boeing airliner (no knocks to their engineers) as a space vehicle? Not
directly, but the fly by wire capabilities, hydrolics, etc may be
serviceable.

Besides, I am getting intrigued by the ruskies shuttle and a lottery married
together as a private space program :-)

lets get some ruso and indian engineers to address the problems...theyr'e
use to dealing with no money and getting results :-)
