61-7971
The 3 NASA birds were renumbered by NASA conventions; 956 became 831, 971 became 832, and 980 became 844, and was the work horse of the NASA family. In fact, the only time 971 ever flew with 832 painted on her rudders was when she was flown back to Lockheed's facility at Palmdale, a whopping 15 miles or so from Edwards, to be returned to the USAF inventory after Congress ordered the Program reactivated in 1995. |
