    5:41 that is actually a good way to approach the airport that space shuttle pilots actually do, they come over the airport and do what you just did, so you shouldn't feel embarrassed lol.

    The Space Shuttle has speedbrakes too! Enable speedbrakes and you'll see the rudder's interesting behaviour: it multiplies for both sides and acts like a speedbrake.
    Also, that was a Space Butter Landing.

    The full glass cockpit was actually one of the last major upgrades to the Shuttle in the very late 90s to early 00s. I think most commercial aircraft already had the technology finely tuned before the changes to the Shuttle which was rocking the CRT monitors since the beginning, brand new for the 70's but by the 90s it was clearly outdated.
