Description of Driving Event:
During the retraction of the orbiter protection system "Y" curtain wall in the console mode, the speed attained after leaving the slow travel transition is excessive. The operator must manipulate a manual valve to reduce air flow to the winch. High impact stops from the rapid movement of the "Y" curtain wall during retraction may cause personnel injury and/or damage to payloads and facility (PAD).
