About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — Eileen Collins, mission commander on Return to Flight STS-114, and Pilot James Kelly walk away from the Shuttle Training Aircraft (STA) at the Shuttle Landing Facility on NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. They are practicing landing the orbiter using the STA, which is a modified Grumman American Aviation-built Gulf Stream II executive jet that was modified to simulate an orbiter’s cockpit, motion and visual cues, and handling qualities.
