I remember that Arthur, it was awesome, if I remember correctly NASA called that particular shuttle "Enterprise". The best sight though I remember over British skies was when the SR-71 Blackbird came over, if I recall it was setting some sort of speed record, truly amazing aircraft and a tragedy it was retired.
