BOB OVERMYER'S STS-5 CREW ACTIVITY PLAN. STS-5 Crew Activity Plan, 3-hole punched and bound with split rings, card covers and section dividers. Folding trajectory chart bound at back. The printed STS-5 (Columbia) mission emblem on the cover is overlaid with a color mission emblem sticker, and the interior bears numerous pencil notations by Overmyer. Provenance: The estate of Robert Overmyer (Aurora Galleries, April 2002, lot 631). POSSIBLY FLOWN and used onboard Columbia by Overmyer on STS-5, this detailed activity plan bears his notes, some of them modifying the procedures on checklists. Overmyer did not sign the plan, nor did he leave any statement indicating whether or not it was flown. Bob Overmyer was a USMC pilot and NASA Astronaut who was selected for the support crew of Apollo 17, and served as CAPCOM for that mission at the launch. He later served in a similar capacity for the ASTP, and test duties for the shuttle program, before being assigned as pilot of STS-5 in 1982. He later commanded STS-51-B, and was on the team of investigators of the Challenger disaster. Overmyer died while testing a home built aircraft for the manufacturer, Cirrus Design, in March 1996. Accompanied by a descriptive note in the hand of Mrs. Overmyer.
