Subsonic and transonic forced oscillation tests of a 0.0165-scale model of a modified 089B space shuttle orbiter were made in the Langley 8-foot transonic pressure tunnel. The period and damping of the basic unaugmented vehicle were calculated along the entry trajectory utilizing these measured dynamic data. Some parameter analyses were made with the measured dynamic derivatives.
