		The company made a splash in April 2003 when it revealed that it was working on a privately funded spacecraft, in an attempt to win the Ansari X Prize for the first private, manned spaceflight.
		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.

		Well, sure if ANYONE is going to put a privately funded man in space it's going to be Scaled Composites, but check out THIS cockpit photo of their mothership called the "White Knight".
		He has designed two twin engine aircraft, the defiant and the boomerang, in which after loosing an engine there is nothing special for the pilot to do but keep flying on the one remaining engine.
		Scaled has loved to use the glass cockpit concept and the circle windows for years.

	AT HOME WITH: Burt Rutan; Slipping the Bonds Of Earth and Sky - New York Times
		Rutan employs 88 people at his company, Scaled Composites, in a warehouselike building adjacent to a taxiway.
		Parked in a corner is one of the wildest-looking of them all: the Boomerang, a piston-engine light plane designed to carry seven people at speeds of about 300 miles per hour.
		The nearly complete Boomerang is designed to solve the worst problem afflicting conventional twin-engine airplanes: if one engine fails, the aircraft slues violently to one side, then tends to spin out of control at critical moments (just after takeoff, for example).

	Boomerang!: Rutan's Asymmetrical Twin - Popular Mechanics
		There is a lot that just doesn't look right about Burt Rutan's 5-passenger Boomerang, the latest surprise to roll out of the hangar at Scaled Composites.
		The 30.7-ft.-long plane is a twin, but it looks more like a trimotor that lost its right boom and engine.
		Popular Mechanics got a chance to see just how right when Rutan invited us to take the controls of the Boomerang during a series of shake-down flights before the plane's departure for the Experimental Aircraft Association's 1996 fly-in in Oshkosh.Wisconsin.

	The Space Fellowship
		On October 9th, just five days after Scaled Composites won the Ansari X Prize, the Space Frontier Foundation gave the company its âVision to Reality Awardâ during the organizationâs annual conference on the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California.
		While Scaled technically won the award for SpaceShipOneâs pre-X Prize suborbital flight on June 21, the award was also a celebration of the two recent X Prize flights.
		Scaled Composites founder and SpaceShipOne designer Burt Rutan was scheduled to appear to accept the award, but there was speculation and rumors that, in the flurry of events after winning the prize, he might not attend.

		He noted his Scaled Composites LLC parlayed $20 million from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen into a private space program in mere five years.
		He was among the first to make use of lightweight composite materials -- rather than heavy metals -- in aircraft designs.

		The whole composite flying unit (called Mistel) was guided by the pilot in the fighter until near the final dive into the target, where the fighter separated from the Ju 88 to escape while the bomber flew straight into the target.
		Scaled has completed 34 manned research aircraft and none were announced until they were ready to fly.
		No one knows what issues Scaled Composites has had as they worked in secret, but it's easy to feel like Rutan's running a professional company while Carmack is leading a group of (brilliant, talented) hobbyists.

		Entworfen und gebaut wurde es von Burt Rutan und seiner Firma Scaled Composites und erlebte seine ersten Flüge im November 1996.

		Morrow Aircraft, the Oregon-based company planning to produce Burt Rutan's unconventional Boomerang piston twin, is revising its strategy to include leasing and operating the aircraft, as well as manufacturing it.
		Under the original agreement reached in October 1998 between Rutan and Morrow, Scaled Composites is due to make a single prototype and two certification-test examples of a production version.
		The company is focusing on explaining the Boomerang concept, which is designed to eliminate the single-engined handling problems experienced with most twins, while promoting its low-cost advantages compared to a small turboprop or turbofan-powered competitor.

		So here for the first time (probably anywhere) is a final composite image that gives you a good look at the lovely corona that brisk winter's day (June in Australia), as it appeared to the eyes of those of us lucky to be on board.
		The top preliminary version uses the original mediocre negative scans we first made, the lower one to the left came from excellent scans, combined to highlight many extra details, especially inner corona and prominences, and the lower right adds in the SOHO data to the optimum corona image, then cropped a bit.
		His filters make capture and compositing a LOT easier than my usual 4-8 negatives graded along by hand, although there are other good reasons to optimize and combine images, still, and I expect that will never change.

		When I first took flying lessons, years ago, my aim was to eventually build and fly one of his Long-EZs.

		Designed by aeronautic geniuses Burt Rutan and John Roncz, the 'Boomerang' is named for it's revolutionary foward-swept assymetric wing.
		From a starting point based on the Beechcraft Baron, Burt and John proceeded to fix all of the aerodynamic mistakes in conventional twin design and came up with what is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever built.
		The version is based on the Boomerang as displayed at the EAA Airventure Fly-In at Oshkosh in 1996.

	Proteus: Burt Rutan's Weirdest Plane Yet - Popular Mechanics
		Measuring 56.3 ft., it is the longest plane ever built by Rutan's Scaled Composites of Mojave, Calif. But aviation history could remember Proteus as something more–the plane that opened the door to space.
		Today, as we watch the all-composite plane on its third shakedown flight, it is configured with a huge 54.7-ft. canard and a 77.6-ft. wing.
		Depending upon its mission, its modular design allows these dimensions, as well as the size and position of the fuselage, to be changed.

		The wing is longer on one side and is swept forward.
