Most all of the minor jobs have been done, but the assembly of the tail-cone (and its mounting on the shuttle) and the mating of the shuttle to a 747 (scheduled to arrive at White Sands on Monday) require winds at no more than 8 knots. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
