Tristan...I don't know if it's still relevant, but during the flight tests of the shuttle, the carrier would go in to a shallow dive before releasing the shuttle. The increased angle of attack allowed the shuttle to separate quickly. Wow! I'm getting flashbacks!

I'm sensing there's a lot of deep interest out there for the shuttle. This was an awesome site to see and I feel very lucky to have been able to capture it.
