Would you ride the shuttle??

Hi all,

just wondering how many people would take a ride on the shuttle under the current climate of safety risks and cut backs???

Ps: i would go :!:

Even if the worse case scenario happened on re-entry..............i'd still risk it.

You'd have to literally nail me to the floor to stop me getting on board.

My gut feeling is of course to agree with Dave - Wild Horses couldn't hold me back! But I also have a sensible head and sometimes I even use it That says that these are ageing craft that were heavily compromised at the time they were built - nearly 30 years ago - and 40% of all those ever built have exploded killing all on board.

So that's a bit of a "not sure" really.

Nope. It's a flawed vessel. The design is wrong, it has a terrible safety record. No way. I'd prefer to hold off a few years till we have safer vessels.

Bart.

I'd prefer to be in it myself but either way would be an experience
you'd be hard pushed to forget.

Anyone see the return to flight Docu on Discovery last night?
