G5_19: D950AZ @ FL 170 or at discretion of team
G5_12 LVIS: D204AZ-D219AZ @ FL240
G5_12 HYTES: D251AZ-D255AZ @ FL170
G5_7 HYTES: B750AZ-B754AZ @ FL170 (will likely not have time but just in case)
G5_2 LVIS: B220AZ-B227AZ @ FL 240 (will likely not have time but just in case)
G5_19 HYTES: D950AZ @ FL 170 or at discretion of team (only if you didn’t get it in the morning)
PLAN B:
G5_2 HYTES: H650AZ-H657AZ @ FL 160 (higher priority)
G5_2 LVIS: B220AZ-B227AZ @ FL 240 (lower priority, do as many as you can)
