I like the transparency. When Ken Brown and I recording a SpaceShipTwo engine test back in the day from public property, Scaled Composites complained to the airport and called their attorney to see what legal action they could take.
True, transparency is good for the industry!
But as far as I can tell (and as Harry O’Hanley writes himself), that video is from an earlier test, and not from the one with the anomaly.
Yes, they are not as transparent as SpaceX is at Boca Chica allowing folks to stream tests. SpaceX has really set a new standard in showing how rockets are made. The broadcast of a tank test RUD last was classic SpaceX. They have made rocket testing a spectator event just as it used to be at the Cape and WSMR many decades ago.
