Now, if you go here (http://www.nasa.gov/columbia/foia/index.html),
you can find both the last "generic" set and the "flight-specific"
set:
http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/news/columbia/fr_generic.pdf (5.4MB PDF
file!)
I notice that this set is missing pages... all of section 1 and 2-1
through 2-9 at least.
Flight Rules often have updates called Page Change Notices (PCNs). These
only replace the changed from the existing book. The Flight Rules can
sometimes accumulate several PCNs before the book gets republished.
nods Same thing we had, except they were called simply 'changes'
with occasional 'revisions' when there was a large change. We also
had 'message changes', which were essentially memos to change one or
two lines.
After some of the rules there is an 'R' in a circle, followed by a
number. What does that stand for?
It looks to me like this PDF file consists of PCN-1 (11/21/02), *then* the
Final book (6/20/02). Since the PCN didn't change anything in section 1 or
pages 2-1 through 2-8, those pages don't appear when you leaf through the
book from the beginning. I found them starting on p. 447 of the PDF.
Confusing, to say the least. I wish they'd incorporated the PCN before
producing the PDF file.
Yah. I flipped through the first few pages (the PCN) then to the end,
so it appeared to be a complete document missing some pages at the
start.
What are the other volumes of the set?
Volume A - Shuttle (All Flights)
Volume B - ISS (Generic)
Volume C - Shuttle/ISS Joint Rules
Volume D - Soyuz/Progress/ISS Joint Rules
Volume E - ATV/ISS Joint Rules
Flight-specific shuttle rules, and increment-specific ISS rules, are
contained in separate Annexes.
Thanks.
