N328KF —

To commemorate the success of SpaceShipOne’s record setting space flights, a team of Scaled Composites employees and EAA staff worked together to produce an exact scale replica of the world’s first civilian spacecraft for the EAA AirVenture Museum. So close to the real thing is the museum’s replica that Scaled Composites christened it Serial #2 Scaled test pilot and long time EAA member Mike Melvill, his wife Sally, and a handful of other Scaled employees made 24 fiberglass parts from the same molds used to create the original SpaceShipOne. These components were trucked to the museum in Oshkosh, arriving in January 2006. Like a giant plastic airplane model, the parts were cleaned and the assembly of SpaceShipOne, Serial #2 began. http://museum.eaa.org/collection/aircraft/Scaled%2520Composites_EAA%2520SpaceShipOne.asp#TopOfPage
