	FLIGHT INFO:

	*** UPDATE ***
	New estimated time of arrival

	The ER-2 was airborne at 11:30 today after a short 1/2 hour
	delay. Estimated time of recovery is 18:00.

	Conditions are good for an OMS balloon launch tomorrow
	morning, so everyone should be prepared for back-to-back
	flights. We need to get the crew out as early as possible 
	tonight because of the 12 hour rule. Teams are encouraged 
	to leave their instruments on-board the aircraft if possible.

	We will update the message phone at 0600 tomorrow to inform
	people of the balloon launch status. Most likely "Hands On"
	will be at 0800 for a 12:00 launch.

	Alaska ER-2 message phone (907) 356-5721
