General Description

This is the first of a set of 3 epochs of radial velocity monitoring for
 groups of faint brown dwarfs in open clusters. Runs A,B and C are identical, each
 containing six different FLAMES setups. The OBs/fields are labeled SOri_1, SOri_2,
 SOri_3, SOri_4, LOri_1, LOri_2.

The program is designed so that each OB is executed once in run A, once in run B
 and once in run C (in that order - please see "Time-Critical Aspects").

Time-Critical Aspects

Our requirements can be summarised as

076.C-0145(B) after 075.C-0145(A) by *at least* 2 days, but within period 76
075.C-0145(C) after 075.C-0145(B) by *at least* 2 days, but within period 76
075.C-0145(C) after 075.C-0145(A) by *at least* 60 days, but within period 76

These requirements apply to each named field separately (i.e. all the OBs in run
 A *do not* need to be executed before moving onto OBs in run B which have already
 been completed in A.)

To achieve the best chance completing this program then OBs in 076.C-0145(A) should
 be performed before Dec 15th 2005. *BUT NOTE* that partial completion of the sequence
 of three observations is valuable and therefore we do not specify firm time constraints.
 Lost epochs could be recovered in subsequent observing periods if necessary.

Special Execution Requirements

We would prefer to get all the OBs in run A done before moving onto OBs
 in runs B and C.
