Cool files Gary. I remember you posting the flight plans a while ago. Fantastic work and illustrations. A work of art. Just shows how technical the astronauts were. I recall an interview of Neil Armstrong always mentioning he was foremost a problem solver and an engineer. His job was to push the system to the limits and outline the inadequacies and errors that ensued. He always saw himself as an engineer first, he just happened to fly in the bolides he was "debugging". It's a whole new perspective when you put your life on the line because of the successive decisions you make in the very short time you have to make them.
