"so your rude statement to me: "I suggest you come back to this discussion when you can make informed recommendations,..." has a particular delicious karma to it.

I love it when such a pompous ass is delivered his due."

So do I.

My original statement was "Explain How you opt for a RTLS or a TAL after MECO." The SRBs are not MAIN ENGINES.

The Main Engines are those three things in the back that keep burning *after* SRB Sep. Please explain again -- using small words that I can understand -- what portion of the NASA document you have quoted contradicts my claim that you cannot opt for an RTLS or a TAL after MECO. In fact, I will *broaden* my claim. You cannot opt for an ATO or an AOA after MECO.

But if you can explain how it is done, why then I will be properly humbled. (What were you saying about karma?)

Hey, you are absolutely wrong as I pointed out. You forgot to notice that.

So you can stop posting, at least to me.

Your "facts" cannot be trusted. Truce, you shoot from the hip, and supply absolutely wrong information. You even asked (in post 111) "...how we do a RTLS or a TAL after Main Engine Cut Off". Well Truce, you can't, as I pointed out so clearly in the NASA press package post, the Main Engines are required to be operational to do either abort option.
