Shuttle program managers today approved a plan to strip away fire bricks from damaged sections of the “flame trench” at launch pad 39A, to erect a steel grid over the exposed concrete back wall and to spray on a thick coating of heat-resistant Fondu Fyre to protect the structure from super-hot shuttle booster exhaust.
