Flight 1-4: Kondakova 2

Year 1, Day 26.
Project: Kondakova
Mission Objectives:

1. Perform observational survey southwest of KSC.

​Crew: Jebediah (Pilot)

I must confess... I didn't make this landing on the first try. Or the second. But I'm going to suspend my "no quickload" rule for flights for a while due to the following:

1. There's actually a landing gear bug.
2. The tier 1 runway is stupid.
3. I don't fly much, and don't have kOS scripts for runway landings, and the only reason I'm doing these is because kOS isn't out for 1.1 yet.

At some point I'll go back to no quickloads, but in the meantime...

We have another contract, the plane is fuelled and on the runway, so we may as well send Jeb to perform another survey.

This survey is just east of the island airfield.

Due to facility upgrades being performed at KSC, Jeb was told to divert to Island Airfield.

(This landing I did on my first try)

With the upgrades to Mission Control's computer systems complete, we're able to handle more concurrent contracts. Two more surveys have been proposed near the Island Airfield, so Jeb's going to take flight again.

Observations complete, Jeb heads back to the airfield.

Landing gear bug again. I guess this was the last leg of this mission.

Mission Summary:

1. Perform observational survey southwest of KSC: success (x4)!
