    - 04:10UT: GD71 Flux standard Airmass 1.42, Seeing ~1.2". Wind 12.5m/s Observations to the north/east were not possible

    EFOSC observations

    - Because of wind we can't do the Spectroscopic standard star GD71

    - 04:50UT: LSQ14gjn classification Airmass 1.29 Seeing 1.04". A bit cloudy and probably problem of galactic substraction. No determined.

    - 08:42UT: electronic problem with EFOSC. Night aborted.

POST-OBSERVATIONS:
