marko_tomas13 Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 this seems wierd but on a news report about virgin atlantic's space program, they showed the white knight painted in virgin atlantic red and whitethought it was kinda strange since i hadn't heard anything about a partnership for making spaceship one's and white knight's for virgin atlantic....any thoughts on this?
