Horse bolted a long time ago....
...and that horse is SpaceX.
When you look at what SpaceX has achieved in what is actually a very short period, you realise that Boeing is so far behind.
Everytime I see a vid of SpaceX standard launches for satellites, and see the boosters come back down to land with almost metronomic predictability, that must be very depressing for the legacy space manufacturer.
Quite frankly, I found the flight of Grain Silo 8 , sorry SN8, nothing short of remarkable for what looked to have the aero of a brick in so many ways.
But then, when you see how backwards Boeing seem to be going in standard aviation, should we be surprised?
