You may want to consider that every single ship he's been but in charge ended up blown away, crash-landed or severely crippled.

And that in his last assignment (The Enterprise-E) he tries to activate self-destruct on EVERY mission.

Just sayin'. Anyway, chances are you'd probably end up with the second in command in charge trying to do some crazy stunt with a psychologist at the helm, while the captain was somewhere else beating the crap out some weird looking guy.

But what the hell, everything will be fine as long as you remember not to wear a yellow-ish shirt. And make sure your seat is in the rear section, in case they decide to ram the ship into something.]]>May 13th 2010 9:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/So you have 100K to spend at any given time...cool!]]>May 13th 2010 11:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 12:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/Jul 1st 2010 8:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/May 13th 2010 11:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/13/space-adventures-undercuts-virgin-galactic-announces-100-000/

Well, not really that much different than flying a regular budget airline. A fiery wreck is a fiery wreck, no matter how high up you were planning to go.
