               OV-105 touched down at 08:38:17 a.m. EST on Tuesday, landing
          approximately 1,500 feet from  the  Runway  33  threshhold  about
          three  feet  right  of centerline,  and rolling out approximately
          8,700 feet.

               Brake and tire wear was normal, except for a cut 5/16th-inch
          deep and two plys of scuffing on the right inboard tire.    There
          were 57 debris impacts,  with 13 greater than one inch.   Four to
          five tiles are expected to be replaced.

               Endeavour arrived at OPF Bay 1 at approximately 2 p.m. Tues-
          day where deservicing is now in work.
