2 1.5 ECS Borman ECS worked fine. We had no trouble with ECS at all during prelaunch or launch. Lovell That is true. The purge was a lot slower and it was just perfect for the final countdown. It was too fast for the SIM Flight, which we went through, a.nd I got an ee.:r block age. For the countdown, it was ju.st r ight. Very slow. 1.6 Sounds Borman We had been well briefed on all the soundsz the gimbaling, pre valve, a.nd erector. As a matter of fact, when the erec tor started down there was no sound. We had been told that probably there might be a clanking or something. I hes.rd nothing. Lovell All I saw was the sky. 1.7 Vibrations Borm8ll Vibrations. No comment. I had no problems. Lovell Is this liftoff vibrations? Borman No, this is countdown. Vibrations of the spacecraft during countdown. Lovell No, nothing we had not heard before. 1.8 Visual Lovell The windows were perfeot. We had no fogging. Borman No fogging.
