Spacelog Apollo 13

Yes, yaw's coming back in.

Just about it.

Okay. And, Houston, can we proceed with our powerdown now? Getting the ball back off and AOT lamp, et cetera, AC secured.

Stand by on that one for a minute, Fred.

— the ball … get back to—Okay. What we'd like now, I guess, is the next attitude to go to, Vance, and we will work on getting there while we still have the ball.

Roger. We copy.

…

Okay. Seventy-four hours.

Yes. We're not there yet, really. I've got 11 minutes to check … out.

Yes. Bring your … down.

Get set. Keep … It's better in here. Slow now …

Apollo 13, Houston.

Go ahead.

Jim, in a moment we will have an attitude for you to go to, and recommend that you keep your FDAI up while maneuvering to that attitude. After you get there, then we will have you widen the deadband and eventually go into a PTC about the burn attitude.

You were cut off slightly, Vance.

Roger. We will have an attitude for you to maneuver to in a moment. And you should leave your FDAI up for that. The attitude is as follows if you are ready to copy. Over.

Got the book.

Go ahead, Vance.

Okay. This is FDAI attitudes for the maneuver. Yaw 060 degrees, pitch 083 degrees, roll 272 degrees.

Let's not read that in the R₁, R₂. I don't want VERB 69 twice. I want VERB 49, 58g's so I can fly the needle.

Jim. Those are not VERB 49 angles. Those are strictly FDAI attitudes. Over.

Okay. I understand, Vance. It's much easier if the ball is up to fly the needles; that gives me a drift of VERB 49, 58g maneuver. We could fly that manually.

Stand by. We'll try to get you a VERB 49 angle.

Flying on maneuvers.

…

On that last check, what did it look like?

… … …

This is the first three-man LM we've had.

Apollo 13, Houston.

And, Vance, which—What hack you got now on GET?

Okay. Stand by on that, Fred. First, let me read up your VERB 49 attitude, if you are ready to copy.

Go ahead.

Okay. Yaw 27100, pitch 35500, roll 33000. Over.

Ask him if you keep it in AUTO maneuver there.
