I just saw this video of the space shuttle Atlantis being returned to Florida and had an interesting thought. I wonder if Flight Simulator can be convinced to provide similar flight characteristics so that it’d be possible to fly “ferry the shuttle” missions in it?

For that matter, I think it’d be cool to find a way to hack the the thing so that it’d allow a starting altitude of up to a few hundred miles and throw in a few manuvering jets, OMS engines.. Etc… You know, fly the whole re-entry and landing mission.
