<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Wing Probes- had a fantastic day after the frustrations of yesterday’s ICF. They now have 8 out of 9 instruments up and running- there’s still an issue with the PPS, but they have the parts they need to fix it on order for arrival on Monday
so they should have all of them working in time for ICF#2 next week.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A-ATOFMS- still troubleshooting, but they think the issue is with the switch from ground to aircraft power. The instrument did start working ~30 minutes into the flight and actually collected some data, so the team is extremely happy!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">SSFR- was successful with one connection but still working another and will need access to the top of the plane on Monday, but overall a very successful day<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">GVR- no report, PI left early to catch her flight home and I didn’t get a chance to talk to her<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">FIMS- things are going very well, Jian was able to do all the calibrations he needed to do so everything is working and he’s happy<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">MARLi/ADL- still troubleshooting ways to make ADL work better<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Significant progress is also being made on the cargo shipments:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> Good first flight to get in the air and work out issues. It was a long but ultimately productive day to start ARCSIX! Cloudiness over WFF restricted our flight
operations to work over the ocean, but able to accomplish many of our calibration and shake-out objectives. This included TAMMS-winds maneuvers at 2 altitudes, PUTLS inlet flow calibrations at 2 altitudes, a box orbit and descending box spiral, in-cloud sampling
with CVI/microphysics, in-situ leak checking, MARLi above-cloud stacked legs, and a bonus LVIS-alignment in a small patch of clear air just off the coast. We were also able to shake out important air-to-ground data transmission issues.
