The early flights using the orange pressure suits stored them in net bags on
the front of an avionics bay which was just to the left of the airlock.

Don't know about the later flights with diff suits and more crewmembers.

I have been unable to find the answer to this question: Where are the
Shuttle LES/ACES Suits (or "pumpkin suits") stored in the cabin after
launch. In all of the pictures I've seen of Astronauts in the Space
Shuttle, I've never seen then stowing or unpacking the launch suits.

My first guess would be the middeck lockers, but they seem too small to
hold 4 -7 pumpkin suits and helmets! The airlock already holds the EVA
suits, so that's no good.

Anyone who has read up on this, or knows the answer, I'd be greatful
for a reply.
