Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Orbiter 101 "Enterprise" rides "piggy-back" atop the NASA 747 carrier aircraft during the early minutes of the first free flight of the Shuttle Apporach and Landing Tests (ALTs) conducted on August 12, 1977 at Dryden Flight Research Center in Southern California. Two chase planes can be seen in the right background. Astronauts Fred W. Haise Jr., and C. Gordon Fullerton were the crew of the "Enterprise." The ALT free flights are designed to verify Orbiter subsonic airworthiness, integrated systems operations and pilot-guided approach and landing capability and satisfying prerequisites to automatic flight control and navigation mode.
Date Taken on 12 August 1977
