Lucky enough to have a few rigs so wont need to swap. From the looks 150 is a no brainer, went the 170 to keep within the WL range, so hoping it fits the VC1 else will throw it in a vector 348 -

RIP i dont think this will be game over this is the fourth fatality on this program given the 3 engineers that where killed in the 2007 explosion.

Given that he landed 70 miles away from where he took off, I'm interested in hearing details about how the recovery team tracked him. In the video I see what appears to be a skydiver run toward him as the first person to greet him. Then in a later shot a helicopter is landing nearby. So, am I correct to assume that a helicopter was in the general areas where he was expected to deploy and as he got near the landing area someone jumped from the helicopter to be the first person on the ground to greet him back to earth? Could this person also help in figuring out the wind direction? Perhaps by setting the landing pattern for him? spotter plane http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/top-secret-mission-edmonton-pilots-helped-google-exec-set-near-space-skydive-record-1.2072451
