Special Execution Requirements
Special Calibration Information
Observations of spectrophotometric standards, as well as flatfields in
the non-standard
filters Z, H-alpha/7_ESO856 and H-alpha/12_ESO858 are necessary for this program.
The requirement is to observe at least one spectrophotometric standad, according
to the
submitted OBs, in the same night and filter as the science images.
We require the observations of the spectrophotometric standads in the Z band to
be performed
with an airmass as close as possible to 1.
Additional calibration OBs were submitted in order to obtain Dome and Sky flats
in the Z, H-alpha/7_ESO856 and H-alpha/12_ESO858 bands. Obtaining a good number
of Sky flats in all
the bands is a critical issue for a good flat-fielding, large-scale illumination
correction
and fringing correction (for the R, I and Z bands).
The relevant information for the spectrophotometric standards is as follows

not part of the Calibration Plan ?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make
use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?
If this is a run that requires coordinated observations with other facilities,
did you give proper instructions in the Time-Critical Aspects Section ?
Did you set 'New Preset' flag in all acquisition templates to 'True'?
Have all your submitted OBs the same filter for the acquisition template
and for the first science template?
Did you combine calibration templates with science templates for any
OB?
