AS-203 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (445 words) |
 | AS-203 (or SA-203) was an unmanned flight Saturn IB launch vehicle. |
| The main purpose of the AS-203 flight was to investigate the effects of weightlessness on the fuel in the S-IVB tank. |
| In the spring of 1966 it was decided to launch AS-203 before AS-202 as the CSM that was to be flown on 202 was delayed. |
| The Superior Works - Patrick's Blood & Gore: Planes #90 - #100 (6880 words) |
| This plane has its cutter pitched at 20 degrees, and has a cutter adjustment mechanism like that found on the #60, et al, although the sliding part of the adjuster is not the same as that used on the low angle block planes but is like those used on the #220. |
| The plane might be mistaken for the first model of the #60 (those without adjustable mouths) were it not for the pitch of the cutter and the fact that "203" is usually cast below the cutter's adjustment knob. |
| This plane is identical to the #203, except that it is larger. |
