Color8x10. Captioned at lower margin. James Adamson (b.
1946), graduated from West Point in 1969, after leading the Academy's pistol
team to the national championship. He earned an M. S. in aeronautical
engineering from Princeton in 1977. As fighter pilot in Vietnam, he
earned many awards, including two Distinguished Service Crosses. He
joined NASA as a test pilot and aerodynamics officer during the test
phase of the space shuttle, hence his association with the wind tunnel test.
He spent 334 hours in space on two shuttle missions: STS-28
(Columbia), a 5-day classified mission in 1988; and STS-43
(Atlantis), which set a new record for payload boosted into orbit in
1991. After performing important research and administrative duties for NASA, he
moved to the private sector in 1992, where his posts included President and
CEO of Lockheed (1994) and Chief Operating Officer of the United Space
Alliance (a Lockheed - Rockwell consortium contracted to NASA) in 1995.
Signature lightly bled through to verso. Otherwise, fine condition.
