Preflight

• DSM323 did not boot on initial power up. Cycled power and it then booted fine.
• FWD and DWN cameras not operational today.
• Justin J. has requested that the SDI Blower be powered ON during taxi and not sooner. Exceptions will be made for ground testing.
• Ground to APU power transfer was seamless. Ale (R-10 NO/NOx) and Eric Apel (L-8 TOGA) were interested in knowing when powered transfer was complete.
• Ale (R-10 NO/NOx) remained on board until power transfer was complete.
• During taxi - powered ON SDI Blower, RAF CN, and HIMIL Heat Controller.

In flight

• VISTV units reporting in w/m2. Should this be in volts?
• RAF CN CNTS were way too high! Between 100K and 1M. Should be <10k. Justin was informed and he will adjust the flow.
• Questions regarding RSTT data reporting -50 to -80 degC in clear air. Also, data is being clipped below -52 degC. Consulted engineering and this seems to be normal operation.
• UHSAS reported no data in flight today. "0.00 samp/sec" on Controls/Status page. Plan to seek SE support post flight. <Update: UHSAS needed a Null Modem on the Serial connection.>
• CDP, 2D-C, and PCASP probes all operational.
