How many Shuttles?
« on: October 14, 2007, 01:22:33 AM »
Will all the Shuttles be availabe to use in SSM07? I would assume so, if missions all the way back to STS-1 are planned. Of course because of S3, Endeavour is my personal favorite and would love to see her in the new sim!

My bet is that the Endeavour will be in this new sim to fly the STS-88 mission. ;D By watching the video the Discovery will be in it, the Columbia for STS-1. That is just my guess. ;)

Hi,

All the Space Shuttles will be included in the released version and each mission will be carried out by the correct Space Shuttle :)

will each Shuttle be different other than in name? Eg. Columbia will have the built-in airlock and will be much heavier than Atlantis or Endeavour.

Also, doesn't columbia have more of the black tiles along her wings? I believe they thought that area would need the more heat resistant tiles. I think that's the story behind that :)

Yes she  does. That was one thing that made her unique in the fleet since the beginning. The second was the SILTS pod atop her vertical stabilizer and it's associated HRSI tileage.
