Just to be clear VA has nothing to do with Virgin Galactic. But then again, Sir Richard is burning through money with no chance of turning a profit, so maybe he needs some pay cuts in his other companies to pay for his toys.
I am good friends with the pilot that flew WhiteKightTwo on that formation flight.
It was a well planned flight, with FAA blessing. It was arranged for PR when VG opened their terminal at SFO. They parked WK2 and SS2 by the VG gates an there was a big party for VIPs. Virgin is all about big PR...
For the guys that say the 717 is not commutable, I'm curious what you consider as not a commutable time off? For example, if you have a few 3 consecutive days off, do you consider that not doable?
