Since my original concept for DARPA’s ALASA program, I have presented several papers at AIAA-JPC (AIAA-2015-3894, AIAA-2014-3651, AIAA-2012-4155; as well as a presentation to Fast Forward) over the last years concerning a Sub-Orbital Passenger Aircraft that is specifically designed so it can be easily modified for Space Launch Operations. I achieve rapid change-over from passenger service to space launch operations via detachable passenger modules. As you may be aware, Airbus has obtained at least 2 patents on nearly the same idea. Besides my patent-pending concepts that are similar to Airbus, my greatest pride is my flight simulator program. Question 1: What is the best avenue for advancing this technology on a full-time basis? Question 2: Do you know someone that can introduce me to Airbus VP Charles Champion or equivalent domestic aerospace executive so that we can finally visualize a high-speed point-to-point suborbital transport?
