Ferrari Mailing List: Re: *****SPAM***** [NFC] Balloon ride to space...

[Rick Moseley (ramosel]

Luke, was the B model the one that used the J-57 with the long AB?

Still, 61k in a Voodoo…. with a J-57… That thing must have been gasping for air.  

I know with the F-4 on the horizon, the guys at Wheelus talked about a Voodoo with J-79s… did that ever happen?

I got an F-101B up to 60k ft; that was enough for me!!!

So, as much as there was some hesitation from ‘List members to take a roller-coaster-rocket-ride to space, how about a graceful float to space?:

For concours-winning Ferrari Mondial money, one can take a peaceful, hours-long ride to the edge of space.

 

Thing with this is, if things do go awry, you could just pull a Joe Kittinger/Felix Baumgartner and parachute safely back to earth. Win-win...
