While eating your delicious burger, your decide to get another one. And another one. And so on. And then you get hardened arteries, and have a heart attack. In the middle of a PETA meeting, and no one will do CPR on you, because you were eating a burger. And you die before 1.0 comes out. I try to infiniglide in 1.0. What could go wrong?
Ok, here's a part heavy one with no pics: Take a Comms DTS-M1 and stick it on the underside of your spaceplane. Using the rotate tool, flip it so the black side faces out. Use offset to get the edge flush with the wing/fuselage. Repeat until underside is covered in black tiles. TAH-DAH! Heatshielding! *Will not work in 1.0, I think. You could also use this technique to "paint" an SR-71, but I wouldn't want to even try to load it!
Well, there is no shortage of helpers! Remember: start your gravity turn at ~10 Km, and don't forget the OX-STATS! I remember my first mun landing: came in hot, very hot, bounced, EVA'd Jeb to have him survive, he died, the capsule was fine.
