General Description

This programme is carried out as compensation for lost observing time
 with TIMMI2 at the ESO 3.6m telescope due to technical problems with the telescope
 dome. All OBs are defined to reach sensitivity limits similar to the ones predicted
 for TIMMI2. The acquisition can be made blindly according to the templates defined
 for the various OBs. We included finding charts using 2MASS images at Ks. Instructions
 as to how to find the targets are included in the finding charts as well. Since
 more information is not available, we suggest to use the target position blindly,
 if having diffculties identifying the targets. We defined blind offsets from the
 nominal source positions in order to correct for the chopping/nodding positions
 on the detector.

We shifted 2.5 hours from the project 77.C-0005(B) to this one.
