I think they've already started. Was due on the 23rd.
Target rollover of Atlantis on November 7.

I haven't seen anything on the KSC webcams in the VAB...

Well, the latest ATK report dated Sept. 21 has stacking starting today. But I think that has been delayed since the strike started USA only has one crane crew available and they were busy overseeing the sling removal and disassembly today.
My best guess is either tommorow or Thursday is the new SRB stacking date for STS-122.

My guess would be to keep watch on the KSC webcams page for the first VAB aft skirt delivery.

Aft SRM segment. The aft skirt is a component of the aft SRM segment just like the ETA ring.

I have some dated info that Atlantis was to have her main engines installed yesterday. Does anyone have any information on this?

Installation was supposed to have started yesterday. We'll have to wait for the next status report update to confirm.

Ok... I haven't seen this anywhere so.... has SRB stacking begun yet? Seems to me that we should have heard something by now considering all the hype of preserving the launch window by completing HB 3 door maintenance early.

Was delayed by weather (transfer). Looks like they've now started buildup proper.

OK. Thanks... I was just wondering because I hadn't seen anything here or on L2 about this.

FYI, that information is in multiple status reports posted on L2. Just have to keep an eye out when Chris starts posting!

Great to see the stacking finally begin. How many days of contingency time to they have in the 122 processing schedule, assuming a December 6 launch target?

IIRC, one of Chris' articles used the word "just" to describe the time for that mission. I assumed that meant "zero".

So there's currently two flows with almost no contingency time, amazing. I'm sure it will be quite a relief for you guys when these two eventually go up the hill
