All the passengers will undergo training before the flight. I believe Rutan plans on using the White Knight II for that since according to the press the aircraft is acrobatic.

Remember Jurassic Park, that is was supposed to be safe and "foolproof". It's not what the passengers get. It is what the pilot has to do in case of an loony patient who wants to crash the thing, Who wants to pull the emergency door release.

The rider who doesn't strap in after weightlessness can kill all the others including a pilot as he bounces like a ping pong ball on turbulent reentry.

This is a whole new can of worms folks. Then fun has just begun.

I believe you're correct. If you look at White Knight Two, it has two fuselages that are exactly the same size and configuration as SpaceShipTwo, including the overhead portholes. The only reason for those portholes would be if both fuselages are equipped with the same seating arrangement as SpaceShipTwo.
