...But could you explain why the last numers 008695 of the hole ID arent important?
Ok, well it seems that you are really food at this, so I would like to throw another one at you, if I might. I just recieved mine yesterday, and of course, one of my studetns has already dropped it on the corner of something and not only put a nice cut in the top cornr, but also broke the plastic.....Uggh...Anyway, here is the codeVO70-394504-336-010174there is also another code on the back, on a little piece of paper stuck in between thetile and the plastic:M0364-0006 TYPE 1If you could send me a diagram of the locatation, and if the code on the back has any meaning, it would be greatly appreciated. I have only been able to say that it comes from bottom of the shuttle, 394XXX mid fuselage sides and lower. Anything else would be great. The kids love it- even the one that dropped it....daveNational Academy Foundation (prep)7th grade math.
That is really cool. Thanks for the super fast response. Not to be a bother, but would it be possible to get a higher resolution drawing of the shuttle tile area, so I can make some sort of a display? After one student dropped it, I think I am going to make an acrylic box to house it in, so it will not be damaged any further. Thanks, and where are you getting the drawings for the shuttle anyway? is that available to the general public, or is it a secret NASA thing? Thanks so much.dave
It seems this thread it a bit old, but I'm hoping by some miracle those of you with access to the NASA software might still read it. I'm trying to locate VO70-391016-438-010365. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
I found your tile location - its on the port side of the orbiter, below and slightly forward of the crew access hatch. I have marked it in red on the attached tile map (click on the image to enlarge).
I shall start checking the DAT presentations with the extreme hope that Analog will post this tile identification ASAP!
