You must select one or the other prior to the burn
then pick the ignition time for that site:

217.....04:05 AM.....05:08 AM...Kennedy Space Center
218.....05:37 AM.....06:39 AM...White Sands, NM
218.....05:41 AM.....06:43 AM...Kennedy Space Center
219.....07:11 AM.....08:13 AM...Edwards AFB, CA
219.....07:13 AM.....08:14 AM...White Sands, NM
220.....08:47 AM.....09:48 AM...Edwards AFB, CA

If the shuttle had to land in the west:

How far after the deorbit burn can they change from Edwards to White

Sands?
Is there enough energy if they deorbit burn for Edwards, can the shuttle
carry enough energy to make White Sands?

Thanks
