Re: Flyback boosters

On a pleasant day while strolling in sci.space.shuttle,
a person by the name of John exclaimed:
They were, however, budget limited. There were continous cuts in STS
R&D funding that forced the configuration to what it is now. I agree

Right, I keep hearing this. Which is fine.
But what I want to know is what would have happened if
the budget HADN'T been cut, if there had been lots of
money. What kind of craft might have eventuated? Would
the flyback boosters have made a big difference or would
it still have been ridiculously expensive to operate?
