Pilot: Capt. W. Knight
Purpose : 1. Pilot Checkout
Launch: Hidden Hills on magnetic heading 212°, SAS Hi-Lo-Hi (8-4-8), ASAS Armed, both BCS "OFF," RAS "OFF," b switch to "b." Ventral off.
Launch Point Coordinates:
36° 20' N, 115° 59' W
No. | Time | Alt | Vel | a | q | Event |
1. | 0 | 45 | 790 | 0 | 145 | Launch, light engine at 75% T, decrease to 50% T. Rotate at 10° a until q = 20°. |
2. | 28 | 46 | 1200 | 10 | 310 | q = 20°. Maintain q = 20°. |
3. | 74 | 65 | 2450 | 5 | 525 | Pushover to zero g. |
4. | 90 | 72 | 2900 | 0 | 550 | Extend speed brakes to 35°. |
5. | 99 | 74 | 3200 | 0 | 650 | Increase a to maintain Hdot = 0. |
6. | 126 | 74 | 4000 | 4 | 940 | Shutdown (shutdown will be accomplished at 4000 ft/sec or 134 sec. whichever occurs first). Retract speed brakes. Maintain H » 74,000 ft. |
7. | 143 | 74 | 3700 | 4 | 800 | Perform moderate right and left rolls and rudder pulses. Vector to Pilot Knob. |
8. | 185 | 74 | 3080 | 4 | 550 | Pilot Knob. |
9. | 200 | 74 | 2900 | 4 | 500 | Descend at » 400 ft/sec. Vector to High Key. |
10. | 220 | 62 | 2600 | 3 | 700 | Cuddeback - continue to High Key (Hdot » -400 ft/sec). Engine Master "OFF." |
11. | High Key - check flap and "Squat" circuit breakers in. Calibrate. | |||||
12. | Before APU shutdown, cycle flaps, set stabilizer trim to zero, data "OFF." |
NOTES:
2. Emergency Lakes: Three Sisters and Cuddeback.
3. Flight Duration: Approximately 9 minutes.
4. Flight plan based on 57,250# thrust engine, 34,100# for 50%.
Total burn time at 50% = 144 sec.
Launch wt. = 33,000#, Burnout wt. = 14,950#.
2. Malfunction of any SAS channel.
3. Malfunction of inertial platform.
4. Malfunction of Ball Nose.

1. | Radio or Radar | Proceed as planned. | ||
2. | Total Pitch Damper | Proceed as planned. | ||
3. | Total Yaw Damper | Proceed as planned except pushover to 2° a at 74 sec. instead of 0 g. Do not perform roll and rudder pulse maneuvers. | ||
4. | Total Roll Damper | Same as 3 except turn Yaw Damper off. | ||
5. | Attitude Failure | Use 5° a in place of 20° q at 28 sec. | ||
6. | Ball Nose | Proceed as planned. Use 1.5g at 10 sec. instead of 10° a. | ||
7. | Delayed engine light | Pushover to zero g at H = 65,000 ft. (Hdot » 600 fps). | ||
6. | Inadvertent
engine shutdown:
00 - 72 sec. Delamar 72 - 76 sec. Hidden Hills (2300 fps) 76 - 90 sec. Cuddeback (2400 fps) 90 - Up Edwards (2900 fps) |
