| 1965 Nov 19 - Nation: USA. - Manned portion of the Apollo coast and maneuver simulation program was completed Program: Apollo. Spacecraft: Apollo CSM. Flight: Apollo 204.
The manned portion of the coast and maneuver simulation program was completed, evaluating man-in-the-loop capabilities and their effects upon maneuver accuracy, maneuver time, and propellant consumption. The maneuvers and pilot techniques satisfied the midcourse attitude and translation control requirements for the Block I Spacecraft 012 manned mission. The study was conducted in eight phases, including more than 950 runs. Preliminary analysis of the results indicated there was compatibility between the pilots and the maneuver control equipment.
