I t was
really well done, and the reentries were also. We got
a real good feel for the reentriea.
We had the people fro.m
FOD and the people fro.m FCSD up there at the time.
we
understood not only the procedures for flying the
reentries, but the wlJSr 's, the how's, the l imitations
of the systems.
Well, that's where we dug out the procedures actually
for the reentry technique.
That's right. That's where we developed the procedure
of following the roll needle up to 3 G's.
That was
probably as good a week in training as we bad the whole
time.
