I like the "Feather oscillations were actively damped by the pilot" statement. Ride 'em cowboy!



Even better, note this paragraph from the test report
(http://www.scaled.com/projects/tiero...a/flt_data.htm):

"During a portion of the boost, the flight director display was
inoperative, however the pilot continued the planned trajectory
referencing the external horizon. "

VFR to the edge of space! Whoo hoo!
