Wonderful thing to watch. Going supersonic moved the centre of lift about two metres back, so the crew pumped fuel into a rear trim tank to move the weight with it, because trimming with the elevons would have cost too much drag. Which detail in that film surprised you most?

The detail that stayed in my routine was recording the range boundaries before the breakout.
