Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Finally, training photo S69-31058, taken either earlier in the same training session or at a previous session, shows the mast with only the outer section raised. Evidently, Neil either forgot to apply 2-finger pressure to the outer section when he pulled upward on the antenna horn top plate or he didn't apply enough pressure. The result is that both sections of the mast moved in unison, with the inner section still inside the outer section. This may be the same mistake Pete has made. As of the time I'm writing this, I dont know if Pete had to push both sections back into the antenna package or if he was able to squeeze the top of the outer section and draw out the inner section. Which ever was the case, eventually he got the mast fully deployed.
