	Scaled Composites - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Scaled Composites (often abbreviated as Scaled) was founded in 1982 in Mojave, California by famous aircraft designer Burt Rutan out of what used to be the Rutan Aircraft Factory.
		It is known for interesting designs, for its use of non-metal, composite materials, and for winning the Ansari X Prize with its experimental spacecraft SpaceShipOne.
		Although the role was not widely publicized, Scaled also manufactured the 1988 Stars and Stripes catamaran for Dennis Conner's entry of that year in the America's Cup yacht race.

	Scaled Composites Completes Development Phase For SpaceShipOne Engine
		In Jan 2000, Scaled defined a new integrated concept for the hybrid motor that allowed the entire propulsion system to be mounted to the spaceship by simple skirt flanges on the oxidizer tank.
		By early 2001, Scaled had committed to developing the two main motor composite components in-house: The first is the nitrous oxide tank, a composite liner laid up onto titanium flanges, with a graphite over-wrap provided by Thiokol.
		Scaled does not pre-announce the specific flight test plans for the space program, however completed accomplishments are updated as they happen.

		Scaled Composites is authorized to conduct Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) missions under License No. LRLS 04-067, issued by the FAA on April 1, 2004.
		The FAA finds that waiving the requirement for Scaled Composites to obtain a launch license for its pre-flight ground operations conducted in preparation for flight is in the public interest and will not jeopardize public health and safety, safety of property, and national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.
		The license authorizes Scaled Composites to conduct up to six manned suborbital RLV missions from and within controlled airspace near Mojave, California.

	CNN.com - SpaceShipOne took 'trajectory excursion' - Jun 29, 2004
		According to Scaled Composites, late in the rocket plane's boost phase, the primary pitch trim control aboard the craft was lost.
		However, Scaled Composites noted that the resulting "trajectory excursion" had two effects: For one, the vehicle did not climb as high as planned -- to a pre-launch altitude target of 360,000 feet (68.2 statute miles), or 110 kilometers.
		At a post-landing press briefing on June 21, Burt Rutan, head of Scaled Composites said a decision on whether a 60-day notice would be forthcoming regarding future back-to-back flights needed to win the $10 million Ansari X Prize.
