@151L107 According to a list of launch PAOs I found on the web (but can't remember where now) he did LCC commentaries from 1991 to 2006. I'm not sure what he does now, although I think I read somewhere that he works for NASA HQ in Washington.

@ceredigio How do you know Bruce Bukcingham is not doing that anymore?

@RJY4356 He doesn't do LCC commentaries any more.

Gotta wonder why Bruce Bukcingham didn't say anything until T-5 minutes....where was he, away form his post? Probably the lamest of the LCC commentators, according to people who know. Beautiful video though- absolutely not a breath of wind that day, looks like.
