    • First rocket launched from spacesport owned by Amazon.com founder

      Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times

      The FAA wouldn't say how high the first rocket flew, but the environmental study says the initial launches will reach less than 2,000 feet. Over the next three years, the company plans a succession of more ambitious launches, lasting up to 10 minutes and eventually reaching the target altitude of 325,000 feet or higher.

      Controller had back turned before Ky. crash - U.S. Life

      Posted by Jeff from MSNBC

      Bush FAA caused the Crash: "Earlier Tuesday, the Federal Aviation Administration acknowledged violating its own policies when it assigned only one controller to the airport tower that morning. The policy is outlined in a 2005 directive requiring that control tower observations and radar approach operations be handled separately."
