Awesome!  Sounds like a good challenge.  It's good to see the developers circling back to pre-ISS missions.  I am not a fan of the MMU's but it should be fun.  THanks for sharing the link.

Any chance of getting one of the astronauts to hold up the "For Sale" sign at some point, or incorporating it into the mission? As seen here.

Otherwise sounds like a good mission, not looking forward to handling the MMU's again, I never did get the hang of it in STS-41C

51I was one heck of a mission launching 3 communications satellites and another retrieve a repair of a malfunctioned satellite.  Not sure if it would be hard on this SIM though.
