14.0 TRAINING
Gemini Mission Simulator
Lovell
Since there were three crews that had been through
these simul ators quite extensively, and only one that
required any more knowledge or any more
operation of
it , we decided to use the simulator at Houston as a
systems trainer. Most of our basic t raining in the
early phases of Gemi ni 7 was done on systems.
We
used the Houston trainer to gain knowledge of the systems ..
Towards the end we also used it for launch and reeentry
training.
Borman
We made no effort to keep it up to stowage configuration.
Lovell
We made no effort to keep the Gemini Miss ion
.Simulator at Houston in any kind of a GT-7 stowage
configuration.
We just merely used the flying
portions of it to get acquainted with systems
and procedures. It was a procedures and systems
t rainer.
