Flight-flown aeroshell piece from flight number 5, the June 27, 1994 in-flight abort. Styrofoam-type aeroshell piece measures 3 x 1 and is affixed to an 8.5 x 11 off-white card, along with a descriptive plaque and a Deltal Clipper patch. The Delta Clipper Experimental was constructed in 1991–93 at McDonnell Douglas' Huntington Beach facility. It was intended as a one-third scale model of a proposed SDIO single-stage launch vehicle. It first flew in August 1993 and had completed three flights when SDIO terminated the Delta Clipper program. After additional funding was procured, the vehicle flew five more flights before being returned to Huntington Beach for conversion into the DC-XA. RRAuction COA.
