LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- An explosion at an airport home to Scaled
Composites -- the builder of the first private manned rocket to reach
space -- killed two people and left four seriously hurt Thursday, a Kern
County Fire Department official says.

Was NOT a Rutan / Scaled project or equipment.......
Your Subject line is a WAG

??? The article specificalliy states it _was_ a spaceship 2 engine
being tested and that Scaled Composit's truck was at the bunker. It
is true that the motor was for 'non-Rutan' project.
