These flight lines are linked to the shown flight requests.

Line Order Matters: No

Notify PI when takeoff time changes > 1 hour: No

Line Repeat Rules:
- Repeat InSAR lines that do not meet flight track requirements, as assessed by the radar operator.
- PolSAR lines have more loose flight track requirements. Radar operator determines if PolSAR lines need to be repeated.
- Do not repeat nominal data takes. Intended line repeats will be explicitly included in the plan.

No priority information provided by the PI.

Line order may be changed to optimize the acquisition of red lines. Red lines cannot take more than 4.5 hours.
Red: Core line, essential for mission success, must be repeated
Yellow: Medium priority line, repeat if possible
Green: Lowest priority line, may be dropped, do not repeat
