V7 Field parties deployed by lunch time, and Mt Elder, Jeffreys repeater servicing completed given optimal flying conditions. Familiarisation flight for SL, SAR Coord, MO completed. Cargo operations continuing with helicopter as swell too high for safe LARC cargo ops alongside ship. Regards Rob & Shane
