That's odd. You seem to be a pretty knowledgeable person when it comes to movies, trivia and all sorts of stuff five. Now that you're here showcasing all this stuff about recutting TMP, you've never seen the theatrical cut?! This is so odd.
Oh! I found a little something thanks to the kind folks from Trekbbs. It involves dials on that little diagram that's in the middle od the navigator and helms station situation in front of Kirk.

See the little dial with the red center? It moves from left to right. Funny thing is, it's not a flipped shot. They actually changed the position of the dial between shots!
