Saturday, October 8th

The plane is expected on Saturday.  We will WhatsApp and email the flight status when we know it. Take-off is planned for 1000 from Kwajalein (0800 Guam Local time) and ETA is 1430 Local.

When the aircraft gets airborne, we will monitor the aircraft and instruments from the Mission Ops Conference Room. There will be a 0930 Briefing at the Ops Center for those that need to monitor.  You can use MTS or FlightAware to track progress (try to not to access the internet unnecessarily due to overloading our bandwidth).

If the arrival is near our 1600-1930 window we will nose the aircraft into the hangar.  If the plane arrives earlier, we will work with the teams to provide ramp access if possible.

Sunday, October 9th

Aircraft access TBD.

There will be a Science Tag-up on Sunday afternoon at 1400 in the Ops Room to see if everyone can be ready for a Tuesday Oct 11 first science flight.

FYI:

Monday morning we are hoping to add another another modem for internet usage in the 2nd floor area.
