>It's the only candidate that is an Ariane 2. It seems to me that 89-027E/F/G is a possibility.

Some other 4 degree launch? I'm confused. :-) Mike McCants ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
