I didn't have any comment on that.
Neither did I. It seemed to be doing a good
job.
I felt the cabin vent valve was set lower
than I had thought it was going to be.
I
thought it was supposed to be set up around
5.7. I'd like to know if it was cha.l'lged in­

The manual vent valve worked fine.
When we
wanted to vent the cabin, it vented.
The cabin repressurization valve worked fine .
I was very happy to see how well it worked
also with my chest pack.
Any comment on that?
No, I don ' t think so .
I don't think the cabin
repressurized or overpressurized when we were
trying to vent it. Since you were repres­
surizing it and venting it at the same time,
I think the vent valve actually overcame the
repressurization,which is a good thing if
you're trying to vent it, and it is not a good
thing if you're trying to keep it from venting.
Going back a little farther to my other state­
