Really? I didn't think that flight (assuming we are talking of the same flight) had a payload.

I was under the impression that the PLB was empty, with the telemetry systems in the mid-deck.
What is to be the fate of the Pirs module? This Russian segment diagram for 2011 shows it moved to the top of the Zvezda module, but this 2009 NASA ISS calendar diagram shows it replaced by MRM-2, so is Pirs ultimately to be replaced by MRM-2?

How Pirs will be undocked and disposed of is the question when it is replaced by MLM.
Yes, Pirs will be taken away from the station and deorbited by the last Progress that docks via Pirs before the arrival of MLM. That shouldn't be a problem for the thrusters since even the much bigger "Mir" was deorbited by a progress, too.MSSpace...

When did this big change happen? Progress on Proton? MRM-2 design radically changed?

My advice: stick to anik's ISS events thread, his sources are much more reliable.
how can anybody writing those expansive reports change what was alright, and rewrite it in such a way?
