sounds like we think some of the fainter objects in the California video were some of the Al skin from the wing glove?

How does that square with the need to have zippering of the RCC?

If structure is melting from the airframe over CA-NV, the RCC has to zipper somewhere out over the Pacific.

Perhaps we should do some calculating of the position of the vehicle and the trajectory of the RCC panels.

7:55:53 some things comes off over california/nevada and make flares (photo of one posted with time stamp)

7:56:20 shuttle banks left and the last sensors grouped together running from same point in the web/glove (see NASA slide #17 of 25 with dwg and sensors) at 4 corners 150 miles from albequerque - these are above and below wing skin temp sensors.
