Four of Seven

I received my last flight assignments today. Of the seven remaining shuttle flights to the ISS, i will be taking part in 4 of those. Here are the remaining flights and my participation in those:

1) 2J/A -- off
2) 17A -- off
3) ULF3 -- supporting from Moscow (November-ish)
4) 20A -- my next lead flight (February '10)
5) 19A -- supporting as Team 4 (Team 4 attends meetings and is used as an additional body during the flight) (March '10?)
6) ULF4 -- off
7) ULF5 -- backroom support (May/June '10?)

It's quite surreal to think of the end of the shuttle program. It'll be somewhat somber and perhaps a little bittersweet to see the end of the program. It will be an honor to finish out the program.

But the good news is that the ISS will continue to fly even after the end of next year. We will just move on to the next program...eventually.
