50 years ago… mutual post-flight ASTP visits!
Post-flight, between 20 September & 3 October 1975, the American ASTP crew visited the Soviet-Union, symbolizing peace and successful international cooperation between world powers.
Between 12 - 25 October the Russian ASTP crew visited the USA, with Alexei Leonov wearing his Omega flightmaster… the beloved pilot watch of the Russian cosmonauts as ever since their May 1973 visit to the Omega HQ in Switzerland, they were mostly interested in the flightmaster and the automatic Speedmaster Mark III pilot watches !
