a. Phase I - Familiarization
b. Phase II - General systems training
Phases I and II will "be conducted at the Manned Spacecraft Center. Most
of Phase III and all of the Phase IV training will be conducted at Cape
Kennedy.
The Gemini Part Task Trainer, will also be used for out-the-window
vehicle positioning and control, simulating both the day and night side
orbit lighting situations. The tasks to be performed using the ex-
ternal displays are: (l) orientation of the vehicle to various posi-
tions from random initial altitudes, (2) practice estimating vehicle
rates using celestial and terrestrial information, and (3) practice
applicable flight plan maneuvers and tests, such as the rendezvous
maneuver. This document contains only an outline of the mission simu-
lator program. A detailed description of each session will be distri-
buted on a limited basis to crew members and personnel directly involved
in Gemini Mission Simulator training.
Each simulator training session will include a briefing and a de-
briefing. Sessions may be modified as required by such factors as
availability of simulation tapes, equipment, and the assessed value of
individual sessions.
Session 2 - Rendezvous.
Session 3 - Rendezvous.
The Gemini crew station mockup, which duplicates the Gemini space-
craft internal geometry, will be used by the flight crews to establish
cockpit stowage provisions, pressure suit and ejection seat interfaces,
and use of special operational equipment. The advantages -afforded by
this mockup are early availability and stowage flexibility. The flight
crews will use this trainer for a stowage review prior to the MAC
Horizontal SEDR Test (H383-6) and as required during later training. -
3.10.1 Flight plan reviews.- The flight plan will be reviewed with
the flight crews on an as required basis. The first review will be
conducted shortly after crew selection and before commencement of their
preflight training program.

3.11.2 Part Task Trainer.- The Gemini Part Task Trainer will be
used as required for practice of techniques and procedures used during
the terminal phase of rendezvous and docking. The time spent on the
GPTT will depend on the capability of the Gemini Mission Simulator, the
primary rendezvous training device.
3/11.3 Aircraft flying.- To the extent possible, crew travel in
support of engineering and training activities will be via NASA air-
craft. This will expedite crew travel and will maintain crew member
flying skills. Frequently, experiments training equipment can be uti-
lized during these flights.
3.11.14- GT-k and GT-5 missions.- The crews will participate in the
GT-U and GT-5 launch operations and postflight debriefings.
