Titre : HL-10 after first flight with pilot Bruce Peterson
Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
The HL-10 after its first flight, shown with pilot Bruce Peterson. Although the lifting-body aircraft was predicted to have good flying qualities, this first flight showed major control and stability problems. The cause was airflow separation from the vehicle's fins. Changes to the fins' leading-edge shape fixed the problem.
