“In 1967, test pilot Bruce Peterson suffered near fatal injuries when his M2-F2 lifting body disintegrated in a crash over Edward's Air Force Base. At 45,000 feet, he was released from a B-52 carrier-plane, and he experienced a severe dutch roll at 200 degrees per second (cowabunga!). He hit the ground pretty hard, to say the least, recovered from his injuries and stayed on at the NASA Flight Research Center as safety officer. Trivia time, here! It's his crash that was seen in the opening shots of the TV series 'Six Million Dollar Man'!”
