Watching the ECO issue. Hoping it's a transient, as there's not LCC for LOX ECO sensors in the same way they are for LH2 sensors (3/4 following previous issues).
It's at MER Manager level. No word since two reports via L2. Will post any updates.

So what do the closeout crew stand on when they climb around to strap the crew in? Are there special platforms that are removed or are they clambering around on the back wall of the flight deck?

They stand on platforms that are used to cover up windows and perhaps the switches. They bring them out, if I'm not mistaken, right before hatch closure.

Word is ECO issue is not a constraint to launch and is a post flight item (thanks Mark).
Back down to NO issues in work.

FWIW
This week is an excellent chance to see the ISS and shuttle over Britain and Europe.
See the pages at Heavens-above.com
