it is remarkable to me that it costs so damn much to keep a conventional
airliner flying when your paying flight rate is only a few per year.
Maybe if you had a strap-on rocket hanger and could just rent one that is
in commercial service for a few days a year....
But orbital is all about velocity and not much about altitude. And wings
suck for that.
