Comments

A really excellent start to cargo ops yesterday, continuing today. Two flights to Mawson has left us missing our Mawsonite buddies. Refuel setup underway, with hose pressure test due very soon. Hatch covers of ship cleared, into the 'tween decks now. Cargo ops will pause during refuelling, and water transfer will commence. Great weather at the Riviera, again today. A flight to Zhong Shan planned for later today, so we will farewell our two CHINARE companions today.
Regards, Doug & Andrew
