Thanks for posting this, AHIA!!!
Recently, I've watched original CBS footage of the original ALT tests with Shuttle Enterprise - I remember watching this live back in '77 (I was 11 at the time):
Part 1:
Part 2:
I just love this stuff!
Fun fact: N905NA (The 747 carrying Endeavour) was the EXACT aircraft used in the ALT's (clips above).
