alexpgpGot home yesterday at around 7 pm after a pretty hard sim. The folks simulating the Russian side of the flight were actual Russians, here temporarily to participate in precisely these kinds of exercises. So inquisitive was the Russian PRP (assistant flight director, assigned the duty of speaking to the U.S. Russian Interface Officer, or RIO), that my RIO seemed convinced at times during the day that the incessant comments and questions were designed specifically to distract her from her work and force her to distract others with numerous requests for information.
We'll never know.
In any event, the next sim starts in about 6 minutes, and today, I'm part of the crew that's simulating the Russians. I had about an hour and a half of free time upon coming home last night, and as Lee was monopolizing the phone line with a connection to some MUD, I decided not to press the issue and left my e-mail and LJing for today.
Gotta go review some last-minute material, and then it's off to find some Assembly Ops Handbooks for the two upcoming flights.
There's never enough time, but you can't let that stop you.
Cheers...
