This aircraft was the key to success for Scaled Composites to win the Ansari X Prize. Its counterpart, SpaceShipOne, was launched from underneath it in midflight. I am going to mesh spaceshipone and whiteknight soon (i hope).

    Well, actualy @Irobert55, it is whiteknight. Spaceshipone does have a similar fuselage, but if you look up whiteknight or spaceshipone up on the internet, you will see that they are indeed two separate aircraft.

    that thing in the middle is the spacecraft spaceship one. the big thing left and right is the white knight or with other words: this isnt the white knight nor spaceship one.
