Sounds like it would be hard to control.

You need to team up with the guy who made the model of the White Knight, that would be cool, to see the two models flying together.

I saw a spad on a video somewhere that dropped a mini plane from its belly which was rocket powered. Too quick to control while the rocket was in action, but he used the controls to bring the mini plane back to the runway so he could put another rocket cell on it.

Most impressive. But as the rocket cells dont last too long it was not something you could really fly around the place.
Just a quick burst to get altitude then glide it back to earth and land.
