Start the engines and climb to +100,000 ft. Detach the main engines and lower wings (press 1). Detach the satellite (press 2). Detach the landing shuttle (press 3). On re-entry the shuttle will violently spin. Once the shuttle descends to approx 60,000 ft it should stabilize. If desired you can detach the rear stabilizing fins (press 4). The shuttle flies just fine with or without the rear fin section once you descend to < 65,000 ft. Try to land the unpowered shuttle at your favorite runway. Have fun.
