This PDRS OPS complete FDF (Checklist) flew on Challenger during STS-51F from July 29 - August 6, 1985. The FDF consists of 96 individual pages in total, of which 49 are tabbed. The cover is boldly signed by mission CDR, Gordon Fullerton. Numerous pages have highlighted marker entries as well has hand-notated pencil and pen markings and corrections.

Complete flown shuttle checklists are extremely rare considering they only exist "in the wild" from the first 24 flights of the shuttle program. After STS-51L, all flown checklists were remanded to the National Archives and were not allowed to be kept by crewmembers.

$4300 or will consider other offers

I'm curious as to what's under that "51-F." A 23 or 24?

Hart, I put a flashlight on the backside of the page so I could read what was underneath. Sorry to disappoint you but there is nothing. Just a case of NASA being cheap by printing generic covers and applying the respective flight info later. The mission emblem is applied in a similar fashion.
