Status of action items assigned by Apollo Crew Safety Review Board

ASPO Manager George M. Low advised Headquarters of the status of MSC's work on action items assigned as a result of the Apollo Crew Safety Review Board presentation on June 17.

Among those items were:

  1. Switching procedures for the emergency detection system - the crew would manually disable the automatic abort device at 1 minute 40 seconds after liftoff.
  2. High-altitude abort procedures - these procedures were being reevaluated by the CSM 101 crew on the spacecraft simulator; following completion (scheduled for September 23), a decision would be made whether to retain the procedure for optional tower jettison.
  3. Rescue of an incapacitated crew - emergency access procedures were being demonstrated at Downey using CSM 008. Any procedural revisions required would be made accordingly.
Completion of these actions, said Low, fulfilled the recommendations of the Crew Safety Review Board.
