Source for Information[edit]

The information in this article was originally from a press release put out by Rocketplane Limited, Inc., in 2005. I will need to dig hard to find the press release after so many years, and may not be able to find it. -- Joseph Huwaldt (talk) 19:30, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have now added some verifiable references I dug up on-line. -- Joseph Huwaldt (talk) 19:54, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

mach or march[edit]

Can someone in the know determine of there is a misspelling in mach/march "Urie was also Program Manager of the Trans Atmospheric Vehicle (TAV) at Lockheed. His team built and successfully tested a large-scale cross section Mach 25 structure."Srednuas Lenoroc (talk) 09:18, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why would it be March? The sentence wouldn't make any sense. The quote is referring to the McDonnell-Douglas TAV, which was a project to create a spaceplane that was designed to reach the velocity required for low earth orbit, which is approximately Mach 25. See Mach number. Thus the prototype Urie worked on was a "Mach 25 structure". ChiZeroOne (talk) 15:41, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. "Mach" is correct. JohnCD (talk) 15:45, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is why the question was phrased as "Can someone in the know" since we all are not the same and what you read is buffered by what you know and what I read is just met with a question. Have you ever done a search on "Mach" and seen how many relate to a date rather than a process? It will be difficult for you to find date-related Mach misspellings as I have corrected many of those that I have managed to find.Srednuas Lenoroc (talk) 21:25, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
