A/C 67 Investigation Board Final ReportOn March 26, 1987, after the launch of an Atlas/Centaur rocket with a payload of a Navy Communications Satellite, a problem developed and the rocket was lost. John Busse chaired the Accident Investigation Board that was convened to investigate the incident. This videotape is a press conference with Mr Busse, who reviews the findings of the investigation concerning the loss of the Atlas/Centaur-67 launch vehicle. The loss is primarily attributed to a hardover engine yaw command that was caused by an erroneous signal from the digital computer unit. The generation of the erroneous signal is blamed on unfavorable weather conditions which created a lightning hazard. Mr. Busse, also, reviews the investigation's recommendations for avoiding similar occurrences. The press then asks questions about the findings and recommendations.
