Correction: Air and Space Smithsonian magazine (pages 36-41) feature Rocketplane and Reda Anderson in the November 2007 issue (not October) which should be on the newsstands now.
For some reason, even though this seems to be an aviation magazine, in the bookstores the magazine is placed in the science magazines section instead of in the aviation section.

It will be a very long time before Rocketplane
ever flies anything.
