investors are going to get fleeced.
I would be very scared of any partnership with Sierra Space. The new CEO Tom Vice just drove Aerion, supersonic business jets, into liquidation. That was only after forcing a $300m hq move from Las Vegas to Melbourne, FL where he lives.
Prior to Aerion, he pulled the same move at Northrop Grumman Aerospace where he placed a major program in Melbourne. Then he was let go because the company missed a major hiring goal.
