I do not know if I made a mistake by landing after five dockings when I made Pilot, or if I got real lucky getting the Pilot ranking when I did. I do not even think I have made five times again. Since then I have tried to complete six satellite dockings many, many, many times with no luck. Pretty soon (maybe even the next attempt) I had made five successful rendezvouses with the satellite and landed for the Pilot rank and completed the requirements for the Pilot patch. I tried again, this time completing two satellite rendezvouses so I could get the Mission Specialist Rank. The first time I successfully rendezvoused with the satellite I immediately landed to complete the mission and got the Payload Specialist rank. I probably had a couple of aborted missions, but this did not take too long to complete. The instruction manual said you have limited control over some functions on flight one, so I did flight one again while playing around with the controller, but it really does not let you do much. I started with the first flight and just watched, trying to get a feel for what everything should look like. I put the switch overly over the switches on my four switch system and laid the deck card down on top of the system. I have had that game on my play list for a while, and I finally decided to take the plunge. I remember him playing it a few times though. My best friend had this one back in the day, but I never really played it. It all started with Space Shuttle: A Journey Into Space. I really was not planning on playing a lot of 2600 games this summer, but it has started out that way. Once summer (school year summer, not actual season of summer) started I began playing a lot of 2600 games.
