Hopefully this is an easy one to answer! Am on Lunar surface with egress checklist complete, and cabin pressure at zero.... but I can't work out how to open the LM hatch! Is there a click area somewhere that I'm missing? Cheers, Alex

Couple of quick questions on P23 if I may... When you are initially asked to mark the horizon using fixed line of sight, are you expected to manouevre the spacecraft using RCS so its exact? Or is somewhere near the correct side of the earth close enough? Secondly, on one or two of the...

Hi all, Am enjoying the new CM VC, but can't work out how to use MFD's at the same time. Have been using the AOM for checklists up until now, but starting to get harder to follow! Any hints appreciated. Thanks, Alex

Hi All, I have just finished flying Apollo 11 from launch to splashdown (with a significant amount of help from members of this board!!). Feels great to have finally done it .... thanks for an excellent simulation(y). One thing I do fancy having a go at now is a manually flown entry. Has...

Hi, Is there currently a re-entry checklist available for Apollo 11? Have got to the 189 hour point and MCC 7 has been scrubbed. That's where flightplan runs out for me! Have tried a trawl of the internet for a document but to no avail. Cheers, Alex

Hi all, Firstly apologies for the fairly basic nature of this question. I've had a look through old threads, plus the AOH but still can't find what I need! Am trying to perform an auto manoeuvre using the DAP and V 49. To give context, this is to get into TEI burn attitude at 134:30 on Apollo...

Hi all, Have got as far as lunar ascent in Apollo 11, and am gradually learning about the various bit of the rendezvous sequence and the LGC programs for each. Need some help however... Liftoff successful, P52 done accurately enough. Get to the point of starting P20 and taking marks with the...

Hi all, I've been gradually flying the Apollo 11 mission and learning as I go! Have got as far as the lunar surface and am now at the point of aligning the guidance platform using the AOT for star sightings. Was wondering if anyone knows of any documentation that could help me understand how...

Hi guys, Have been attempting to carry out a landing from DOI onwards using the Apollo 11 Mission Scenario 'before DOI T+101:34'. However every time I try and follow the checklist from this position it produces a bad result. From my newbies perspective It feels as if I'm loaded into the wrong...

Hi, Have been working my way through Apollo 11, and have followed all the checklists thus far with only minor things I can't work out! However I'm at the stage of initialising the AGS, and finding it a little hard to understand. Is there some documentation that someone could point out to me...

Hi All, Have been having a go at the AP 11 PDI demo using some of the original documentation as a guide. My question regards AGC Program 64 transition to landing. To enter manual rate of descent control, the following steps are instructed: PGNS - Attitude Hold, Activate ROD switch , Auto...

I have just picked up Orbiter & NASSP again after a few years of being too busy. Firstly may I say the sim is looking great! Many thanks for your efforts. I have jumped in with Apollo 10 as wanted to see what has changed, get the hang of things again. However at the point of Transposition...

Hi Guys, After many years away from Orbiter and NASSP I have just downloaded and set up the latest package. Looking brilliant, so firstly many thanks for hard work! :thumbup: Only problem that I haven't been able to resolve yet is a non functioning ProjectApollo MFD (now vital for missions I...

In October, I am finally making the trip from the UK to Florida! :) Its been a number of years to wait but hopefully will be worthwhile! Will be spending about 3 days in the KSC local area, and am wondering if anyone can give me some advice on some good ways to spend the time? Regards, Alex
