DICK SCOBEE (1939-1986) was the pilot of Challenger STS-41C (1984)
and commander of Challenger STS-51L (1986). Scobee perished with his
six colleagues on the ill-fated Challenger space shuttle that
exploded 73 seconds after launch on January 28, 1986. EINAR ENEVOLDSON, a
former NASA test pilot, is now part of the Perlan Team, working to break the

pilot (with Steve Fossett) a sailplane to an altitude of 100,000, double the
current record, riding the Polar Vortex. Fine condition.
