in case it looked like I was loosing control
in yaw.
He could turn off the roll rate gyro
and get all the authority that I needed in yaw.
As far as I could see, it never deviated more
than a degree from where I was supposed to be.
I don ' t think it ever got off that center bar
in yaw, :ind it never got a dot- that little
dot- -away from the 30 degree mark as far as I
could tell.
Could you see any, Ed?
I was sitting there watching it and enjoying
it at that t~me tecause the attitude was stay­
ing right on.
Yes. It was right on.
We got the 6V in the
right direction.
N,:-w, the IVI' s didn't read
out, because we didn ' t have the computer on,
so we really couldn't tell.
It was as steady as a rock.
You could see the
decelerations and looking out the window, I couldn' t
detect any movement
in attitude.
I was
looking right down on the ground several times
during several of the retros, and I think you
could detect motion fairly well .
I didn't see
any.
