In the article to which I earlier posted a link (BTW, launch was
October 1983), it was stated that the reentry was rougher than
designed (even for that abort scenario), around 21 Gs vs. 18 (rough
either way).
All of that is true, but the link was to an article about the 1983
launch pad abort, while the rest of my reply was about the April 1975
abort at altitude. For a fuller description of that abort, refer to
