I think the orange flight suits were a holdover from Space Academy Level 2. From what i understand each track had a diffrent color flight suit. Orange Green and Blue i'm not sure which was which track though.

Honestly although i commented on PDA in the Barracks area of the forum i never really thought about it. We had some verry nice looking girls 3 of the 4 years i went but really we all became too good of friends to really think about it. Sure out in the real world outside of camp i'd probably whink di...

That would be a really cool picture to have in the year book. Wish mine had done something like that But i did get my name in the paper in 91 for going to space camp. Aparently the camp sent the info to my local paper and also added a little add for space academy.

Note from Moderator: Topic split from "Have a good idea for a HabPoll? Post it here!" thread into its own seperate thread

I know what you mean. I'm so glad to find others who can talk about space camp as much as i do. I have had people who went to camp and i talked to them about camp so much they started putting me on ignore. Or atyleast i think thats the reason i never did anything else to them so i guess that is.

Most AC teams are 12 people which works out so that you have a pilot and RIO for each simulator. My team only had 11 that week though.

Our team split up our EDM into two halves and we switched roles between shuttle and station half way through. For the first half i was on the space station. In 3 h...
