First glide test of Dream Chaser spacecraft successful, but ends in a flip — www.gizmag.com — Readability: "Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) carried out the first gliding approach and landing test of their Dream Chaser spacecraft at Edwards Air Force Base on October 26. The vehicle dropped from its carrier aircraft at 11:10 am, and carried out gliding and landing maneuvers flawlessly. However, the left landing gear flap did not function, causing the test spacecraft to flip on landing."
