No clear indication of APU venting:

They are always "venting", just not visible flames

If "venting visible flames" suits you better, wear it. Anyone
following my posts knows what I meant.

Funnily enough, and I do not know if this is relevant here, most of the
newer tv cameras tend to respond to Infra red as red a lot more than the
older cameras used to. I guess this is the  newer ccd technology, I have no
idea. It came up some time ago  on some pictures of an exhaust on a motoring
program  which I of course never saw...

What you folk need is an eye witness of a landing in the same conditions as
the last one who was at both. You may have better luck with comparing
proper film taken at both, as most recent photos will probably be using
digital cameras, and hence  have similar colour temp issues in the infra
red.

Just saying.

As I explained in one of my posts, NASA has removed access to the
relevant images. If you want to take Charlie's word for whatever
humidity and such he's seen, feel free.
