Oh yes I forgot, they won a 10 million dollar prize after spending 25
million on the project. And now they're soliciting money from us
through EAA. Is that it? It's a money maker for Rutan?

Rutan is soliciting for the EAA, not himself. So it cost them 15 million of someone else's money to successfully light
off an oversized Estes rocket from a free fall. Sounds like a pretty cool ride to me! Wish I could have been there...
