NASA have decided no launch on Saturday as they are still undecided on the fuel sensor problem. They are looking at rewriting the launch parameters manual to use the point sensor box readings instead. All being well they will confirm a 15:21 (20:21 GMT) Sunday launch after the Saturday afternoon Management meeting. Failing that they can launch Monday around 14:50 but we have to be at the airport, 35 miles away, by 15:00 and the Magnum isn't that good! Maybe those nice Techsas managers will let me have an extra day off and Sir Richard will change our flights........
We went to the Warbird museum today which was full of, well Warbirds and memorabilia. Then, in the interests of following local customs and culture, we went to a Shopping Mall and Pizza Hut. Visited the SEARS store and they have Christmas Lights like you wouldn't believe. Unfortunately, or depending on your view point, fortunately they were all 110 volt and too heavy to bring home. D'oh!
Tomorrow (Sat) we are heading North to try an air-boat ride and a drive down Daytona Beach.
Keep your fingers crossed for Sunday, bye for now.
