CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A visitor looks over a model of the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, or SCA, and a space shuttle during a tour of the real Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. The model is a radio-controlled scale version of the modified 747 that was used to test theories for how the space shuttle would separate from the SCA during approach and landing tests.
