Hi, i have successfully accomplished Apollo 11 mission with AMSO, and would like now to try the 12.
but when trying to perform TLI with values given in IMFD guide (at the end of the sheet) i always finish with no more fuel in SIVB and 3 or 4 secs left to be burnt to reach the correct path prediction...what is wrong? has anyone tryed Apollo 12 with AMSO and IMFD? thanks

Haven't tried this one yet...

The values in IMFD's appendix are guidelines. You may have to experiment a little to find the optimal settings.

i understand, i'll try to keep low the value for the pericynthion; unstead of the real "over 3000 km", i'll try a lower one.

Sorry, RL has prevented me from really experimenting with the Apollo 12 scenario. Have tried TLI once with a very bad outcome.

:sorry:
