Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. That's all for the time line, Fred. Now the contingency checklist, if it's handy.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Turn to 30-minute activation on page 24.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Now, at this point, you have this section marked up already, so what I give you now represents additional DELTAs to your previously marked up checklist.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. That's all right. I've got a different color pen, so it'll show up nicely. Go ahead.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Okay. Go down to item 4.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Verify ACS STATUS switch, OFF. That's an addition.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Do you mean, under IVT to the LM, number 4, RCS SYSTEM A/B-2, QUADs 4, AUTO? That 4?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's affirm. Yes. It's the—the only 4 on that page 24 and it's a—presently has after it RCS SYSTEM A/B-2, QUADs, 4, to AUTO. Under that put —

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

— put verify AGS STATUS switch to OFF.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Verify AGS STATUS switch OFF.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. At the bottom of the page—Okay. You already have that. MODE CONTROL, both, OFF.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Next, page 26, circuit breakers.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. First row is okay as is. Second row, under FLIGHT DISPLAYS, GASTA should be closed.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Under AC BUS A, close GASTA.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. GASTA FLIGHT DISPLAYS and AC BUS A will be closed.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. That's all on the second line. Now the third line, under STABILITY and CONTROL, ATCA (PGNS) to closed.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. ATCA (PGNS) to close.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's all on that line. Fourth line, near the right side, LGC STANDBY to close. And —

Fred Haise (LMP)

Wait a minute. You mean LGC/DSKY.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. IMU OPERATE, close.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay, Vance. IMU OPERATE, close.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's correct. Okay. Fourth row is okay as is. Now we would like to add—add in a late arrival to row two. Under —

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Under FLIGHT DISPLAYS, MISSION TIMER, closed.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. FLIGHT DISPLAYS, MISSION TIMER, closed. We can look at the ghosties right to the end.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Yes, that's right. Okay. That's all for that page, Fred. That should add up to six circuit breakers all closed, on that page.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Have we looked seriously now at just the essential things required to make a safe LM jettison? We're not—I don't think we have the time to really do any engineering data that people might want to look at as this thing goes into the atmosphere.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Well, Jim. I—I think that that was what everybody aimed for, and people down here feel that it's the essentials, that it's what you need.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Well, we'll do everything you think is essential, but I just don't want to be throwing switches at the last minute. What we're really thinking about, getting that command module in good shape.

Tom Stafford

Hey, Jim. This is Tom. The only reason we're bringing up the PGNS is to have another reference system just to control the LM when you jettison the thing. Over.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. Okay, Tom. It's—I thought the—an AGS ATT HOLD would have been sufficient for this, when we first thought about this.

Tom Stafford

Yes. I agree. But we decided just in case we have any glitch with the AGS, we want to make sure we get that LM off in a good shape. And I agree with you on keeping out all the garbage on it.

Hey, would you like to have —

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Would you like to have us play you some guitar music to put you to sleep?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

(Laughter) Oh, you know how to get to a guy.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

We'll even have a 12-string guitar for you, Jimbo.
