Approach and Landing Test Program Status; of Space Shuttle Orbiter | WIKIARCHIVES.SPACE

This paper discusses captive-active tests of the Shuttle Orbiter's landing capability. Tests include: free-flight, in which a flare maneuver was undertaken to evaluate the control stick steering mode; separation, in which the pilot pitches up and rolls at a 20 deg bank angle; up and away flight, to test vehicle handling and stability; 2nd rollout, to test the anti-skid system and braking. Attention is given to bare airframe handling qualities, stressing the role of the pilot in controlling the craft.
