Plan of the day for 10/20/2016:
 
0800 POWER ON
0900 FLIGHT BRIEF
0930 DOORS CLOSE
1000 TAKE OFF
 
Mission Tool Suite (MTS): is up and running for OIB. MTS is an integrated way to communicate with the aircraft, joint the different chat rooms (without dealing with complicated setup, etc), track the aircraft (and estimated flight times to any point on the map). Give it a try. If you don't have an account, use the link to request an account and password (trust me, it is worth the little extra effort). To get started go to:

Notes & Reminders:

• Once again, the breakfast bar will open at their regular time: 0700, with the exception of 5 crew members who will have breakfast ready for them at 0600.
• Don't forget to bring your passports for the flight.
