Jim - I forwarded your question to the ascent FDO for that flight and
got this response:

Yeah, he probably is thinking of STS-93. It was Eileen's first CDR
flight...We shutdown .15 seconds early resulting in the 15fps
underspeed. No real impact on-orbit. All low level sensors flashed
dry resulting in the shutdown. It was caused by a combination of being
on the low side of the tanking estimate and the nozzle leak.


More details on this aspect of STS-93 can be found in Jenkins, 3rd
edition, pages 316-317.

thanks, that's the one -- but i'm hearing theere may have been others,
earlier...
