    I don't think there is as the checklists are very good at calling out when to expect MA's as part of the procedure (see MPS ISOL and APU/HYD SHUTDN in the Ascent checklist). And none of the R4 switches are implemented at all.

    For on-orbit burns, you want the procedures outlined in the generic Orbit Ops checklist, page 9-2, ON-ORBIT OMS BURN.

    @GLS: I think I can report some good news for a change! I think I have found the source of all my "unexplained CTDs". Turns out a C++ Runtime file had become corrupted, in this case ucrtbased.dll. I found this out while being fortunate enough to trap a CTD-up-loading in the VS debugger, which...

    It happens sometimes when the ENGINE POWER switches are taken to the OFF position. Harmless, just means that the GPCs can't communicate with the Main Engine Controller on that particular engine anymore. Usually happens if the GPCs and MEC was talking when the MEC was powered down so the GPCs...
