Starting by re-establishing the 40km chopper altitude due to
chopper movement
20:47:14done reestablishing the chopper. Moved the chopper to the 0EG
original position as the position was wrong due to work on it.
20:48:21sodium system on line0EG
21:45:00Skies are couding up, will not be abel to do a chopper test0EG
doing extinction test while the skies cooperate
Counts in pass mode at 40km are 938
21:46:58Counts in block mode 46. 0EG
21:48:55To late, the clouds have moved in 0EG
21:53:52will have to try another time, ending experiment0EG
