Ups the cachet considerably, no? If you're paying that kind of money for a flight, isn't it more fitting to fly out of a Spaceport then Albuquerque International Airport?
Plus, given time, we may see a vicious hive of scum and villainy grow in the surrounding area.
- hugh3 16y agoIndeed, I was just wondering whether there was any practical reason for it. But since "sounds cool" is a more-than-sufficient justification for any Virgin activity at this stage, and since "building a spaceport" was really just "buying an old airport in the middle of the desert and putting up a new sign" I guess I'm not too surprised. Plus, given time, we may see a vicious hive of scum and villainy grow in the surrounding area. Albuquerque?
- astine 16y agoIt's much closer to Roswell...
- skalpelis 16y agoHe meant Mos Eisley.
- camiller 16y agoIf you have to explain it...
- astine 16y agoI got the Star Wars reference. I used to live in Albuquerue and I was implying that Roswell was more like Mos Eisley than Albuquerque. Though that's just a personal opinion.
- duhprey 16y agoMakes sense. Albuquerque's west side is full of a bunch of whiney Luke types "I wish we were cool like the main city" :)
