== Mission phases == | |||
The various phases of a Shuttle mission are generically subdivided into launch, orbit, entry, TAEM and approach. These can directly be accessed by appending the mission phase to the command line. This will automatically start the Shuttle in the correct configuration and the correct state for the mission selected. For instance, --aircraft=SpaceShuttle-TAEM --airport=KVBG will initialize a TAEM approach into Vandenberg. | |||
Specific information on the mission phases can be found in the following articles: | |||

[[Flying the Shuttle - Entry]] | |||
[[Flying the Shuttle - Final Approach]] | |||
