Hi,
Was wondering if anyone knew the status of the Shuttle Mission Log DVD's at Spacecraft Films? I ordered STS-110 last October and have heard nothing since. Only 109 is advertised on there web-site now, whereas 110 and 111 used to be listed as 'coming soon.' Have they suspened production of the Mission Logs? I've emailed them a few times with no responce. Project Gemini also seems to be forever 'coming soon.' :-) Don't mind the wait, just wish they'd keep us informed. TIA. -- Steve. |

I too am begining to wonder what is going on at Spacecraft Films. I preordered Apollo 17, and they claimed they would be shipping July 15. Their site says it is coming soon. A few weeks ago the site said it would be shipping July 15, for the preorder people. Since they are hooking up with Fox Home Entertainment, I really wonder if that is causing delays. Also on their site they mention the new editions of Apollo 11, The Mighty Saturns & Apollo 8. Figures, I just picked all of those titles up a few months ago. I heard they are trying to come up with an upgrade path for prior buyers. So, between our experiences, I wonder if we should start getting angry with them. At the very least they owe us each an e-mail to let us know what is going on. Perhaps they themselves don't know. Sam |

I'll post back here if I get a reply. -- Steve. |

Sam FYI, I just received the Project Gemini 3-DVD set in the mail yesterday, which is cool except for one little detail: ...I never ordered it. Since I was going to order it soon anyway, I'll be more than happy to pay for it when the bill arrives (I checked my credit card status - I have been billed). Several months ago, I ordered and received Apollo 14: the Complete Downlink, so I know that they have my information in their computers. What concerns me is that I'll be ordering all of the other complete downlinks soon, and this does say something for their record-keeping. |

My STS109 DVD just doesnt work ( either on PC or on either of two dvd players )- but ZERO response from them. I REALLY REALLY wanted their venture to work - but I'm not giving them another $ / £ till I hear news. Doug |

I too have been waiting.
My wife ordered the Apollo 17 complete downlink DVD set in November 2002. We understood it wouldn't be ready till Feb 2003. Our credit card was charged in November. The ship date kept moving back on the web site. I sent a letter in May that got no response. I like the product, but service is rocky at best. Since they have this distribution deal with Fox Video, I'm beginning to think Spacecraft Films is filling orders to Fox and not us. I'm considering filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission should delivery not occur by August 1. Here is a FTC link to mailorder/email/web merchandise regulations: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/.../mailorder.htm I like the product. I hope they are just overwhelmed. But I'm wondering if something more sinister is at hand with Spacecraft Films. Eric |

wondering if something more sinister is at hand with Spacecraft Films. I have a feeling they got over zealous. I mean first they start by releaing the Apollo 15 downlink then overnight it seems they are planning to get a large number of sets out in a couple years. -A.L. |

I had a reply today from Terri Nowlan who is the Office Manager. Apparently STS-110 will be completed in Autumn. He apologized for the delay. Guess they're just busy, bitten off more than they can chew. -- Steve. |
