At Kennedy's Shuttle Landing Facility STS-119 Pilot Tony Antonelli smiles after successful practice landings in NASA's Shuttle Training Aircraft (STA). STS-119 Commander Lee Archambault and Pilot Tony Antonelli practiced shuttle landings in an aircraft that is specifically modified to handle much like the space shuttle.
