Announcements:
Thank you to everyone who participated in the ARCSIX Open House today. The community members were grateful for the chance to tour the aircrafts and talk to some of the instrument teams about the exciting science happening in this campaign.
Please start packing cargo tomorrow so ESPO and Kit can begin building pallets for the end of the deployment. Contact ESPO with any logistical questions or concerns.
Wind advisory for tomorrow. Please be cautious when you are outdoors and take taxis when possible.

Instrument Teams: You do have access to the hangar, so please use Monday to start packing cargo and staging it (see above).

General reminders:
Review Dan’s email titled “ARCSIX 2nd Deployment Closeout” for additional information about the end of the deployment process. ESPO will follow up with additional details.
Only essential cargo approved by ESPO and the C-130 loadmaster, such as toolboxes or items needed for P-3 de-installation, or previously approved cargo, will return during transit. All other items will ship via the military cargo route, which may take a few weeks. Best case scenario, your cargo will be at Wallops on the 1st or 2nd week of September - we will confirm. Quincy has created and labeled staging areas in the hangar to separate NASA C-130 essential cargo from "late" cargo. Contact ESPO with any questions or concerns about shipping.
