Informationis given about basic elements and systems that provided automatic landing of orbital ship Buran and its flying tests. Apart from that, there are given little-known facts from G.E. Lozino- Lozinskiy's life, related to his birth in Kiev. On the basis of the archived and regional research there is provided the assumption concerning placing of the house in Metallistov St. in Kiev, where G.E. Lozino- Lozinskiy was born. The necessity of renaming one of streets Kiev in honour of the designer who combined the aviation and cosmonautics is grounded. Key words: landing complex, orbital ship Buran, space center Baikonur, G.Y. Lozino- Lozinskiy
