Jim McDivitt’s mini-flight plan book used during training and with some sections used in flight for Apollo 9. An unusual small book, 5.5 x 8, of approximately 222 pages, three hole-punched, and held together by three binder rings. McDivitt has written on the front cover: "Apollo 9 Final Flight Plan (Mini-style) Flight Spare Some Comments Jim McDivitt." The official mission transcripts quote McDivitt at 41 minutes into the mission saying that he should have brought the whole mini flight plan. There are various pencil annotations inside showing its use, including references to actual mission events such as Dave Scott being cold and where each crew member slept. In fine condition, with some mild handling wear and rippling. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Novaspace as part of Jim McDivitt’s Yard Sale. A rare training and flight used artifact. Pre-certified Steve Zarelli and RR Auction COA.
