Ground crews continue pre-flight loading operations.
A ground crew member completes a vital step prior to the latest flight to the Jovian system. Using the RMS arm on the all-purpose ShuttlePB craft, a landing beacon is loaded into the cargo bay of the DeltaGlider IV. The landing beacon will be taken to the surface of Europa and placed at the location of this mission's construction zone. The beacon will allow the AR-18 Arrow Freighter to perform an automated landing sequence on the Jovian moon, which is now standard procedure for the Arrow fleet after the loss of the AR-17, which was blamed on poor training of the pilot and inadequate safety protocol during manual landing operations.
 
Admit it, you just accidentally hit "T" during the approach, didn't you?

Um...no.... :embarrassed:

Actually, I have landed the Arrow manually once. When I first downloaded it I didn't RTFM, so I didn't know there was an autopilot. (And I apparently missed the button marked Auto Land) Brought it down gently at Brighton Beach without a scratch.
 
Not exactly orbiter screenshot but I couldn't resist (actually background is from Orbiter 2006) :P
