Flown double-sided checklist page carried on the Apollo 7 mission, 8 x 10.5, signed and flight-certified in black felt tip, "This page of the CSM Malfunction Procedures flew on Apollo 7, October 11–22, 1968—Walt Cunningham, Apollo 7." The page, headed "SM2A-03-SC101-(2), Apollo Operations Handbook," outlines procedures for correcting abnormalities and errors in the Flight Director Attitude Indicators (FDAI). In fine condition.
Accompanied by a letter of provenance signed by Cunningham, in full: "Much of my time in 1967 and 1968 was occupied with developing the CSM Malfunction Procedures. Even after years spent learning the spacecraft systems, it was necessary to refer to these flow charts to insure that we did not overlook some critical step in recovering from various system failures. This page was carried with me during the 4,500,000 mile Apollo 7 mission, October 11-22, 1968. It describes the trouble shooting procedures for several potential guidance and control problems during flight. It flow-charts the possible failures, the corrective actions, and the resulting degraded modes of operation. These procedures have been in my possession continuously since October 1968 and any annotations were written by me during the mission."
