OT- beech starships still flying?

I was wondering whether the "Starship" that was seen could have been the
85% scale proof of concept one that could possibly still be operated by
Scaled Composites. But, it looks like that aircraft was destroyed by
Beech:

Coincidentally, the web site you linked to is Bob Scherer's web site.
It is Bob's Beech 2000 Starship that Scaled Composites is using as
chase plane for their X-Prize project. Yes, Bob's plane is a
production Starship (NC-51). Also, coincidentally, Bob keeps his
plane at KSNA which is about 30 miles north of Oceanside, CA on the
California coast. Oceanside is the area in which the original poster
says his buddy saw the Starship. It is therefore quite likely that
the Starship he spotted was Bob's.
