“The red lattice pillars that make up the tower made their first appearance in this set and were otherwise very rare pieces that appeared in only six other sets. This was the first LEGO set that involved the NASA and also the last one until the introduction of Discovery in... More 2003. Other Town sets with space shuttles featured fictional space agencies.”

“This set is the first "space shuttle" set to be introduced in the Lego (town) series. Although not as good as the 6339/6544 (1995) shuttle sets it still does a great job. The shuttle is nice, but without a landing gear and the booster rockets always attached. External Fuel... More tank is nicely done. Set comes with 3 minifig and a vehicle + trailer and baseplate.”

About Town Flight

The LEGO Town Flight theme, active from 1985 to 2004, centered around aviation and air travel. Significant sets include 6392 Airport, a foundational set featuring a terminal and control tower, and 1682 Space Shuttle Launch, which combined aviation with space exploration. The 10159 City Airport set modernized the theme with updated airport facilities, while 6597 Century Skyway provided an extensive airport layout with multiple aircraft and detailed infrastructure.

Flight consists of 24 sets that ran from 1985 to 2004. As of today, 6392 Airport is the most valuable Flight set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $1,022.
