There is plenty of time at night when you are
flying.
Now the worst thing at all was a guy
sleeping. If you turn on your instrument panel
lights it only lights your instrument and the· thing is
you are interested in most is that ce,nter panel
with the cabin press and the secondary o and

all these things in it.
So , the big thing is
that you need an auxiliary light in there, like a
pen light.
Yes, you did.
The umbilicals:
I had about the right fit on the
umbilicals and all that sort of jazz.
The cabin
press was great. .The thing locked up a little
high on lift off like it was supposed to but then
a 4.9 never moved.
We covered the co bit. Did
2
you c·over the comfort day night and how the high
rotation rates that effect us? We m~ver used
the cabin fan except just prior to l:Lft off
where it is cal l ed for in sequence SJ1d when we put
the cabin cooler to the full cold po::11tion and
brought on the cabin f an and fl ew it through
' -re­
entry that was it. Primary o did vent quite a
2
bit. You covered that.
Yes.
