Lovell
Right.
One area that does need improving is the coordination
between the simulators, the Cape and Houston.
Borman
You're t alking about SIM Nl!i"'TS when we ran with Houston,
which was almost a total waste of time, on our part .
Borman
That's right.
Lovell
We wasted an awful lot of time just waiting around, because
there wasn' t the coordination between the two.
Borman
It was not the coordination, it was just the interface.
Lovell
That's what I mean, the interface. They weren't
connected properly.
We did get a lot of bum dopeJ
it wasn' t the lack of training, it was the lack of
proper training.
Lovell
Station keeping with the booster occurred down here
at the Cape only.
I thought that was fairly realistic
when it was working.
I thought it helped aome.
Borman
I thought it helped a lot.
