Emerging Paradigms Module Guide
Follow Packet Pete as an aircraft lands, but a gap in its record prevents a full mission review.
The aircraft lands after making a late choice.
Part of the flight record is missing.
Link each record to the aircraft and source time.
Replay the mission, not just the landing.
