Dream Chaser Captive Carry Flight-Test

On my way to work today, saw SNC preforming this test. First flight of the Dream Chaser spacecraft designed by Sierra Nevada Corporation during captive carry test on May 29th, 2012 right outside of Rocky Mountain Metro Airport. The Dream Chaser aircraft did not separate from the Sky Crane, but stayed attached while helicopter above preformed some maneuvers. Successful landing back on the starting crash pad.
