Michael Person is in New Zealand getting ready to fly on SOFIA, and he sends these photos of the preparations there.

| This the lab. It's pretty cramped as it has to serve all four instruments that will be flying on SOFIA while we are down here. In this shot they are refilling FLITECAM with liquid helium. |

| HIPO on it's transport cart preparing for pre installation testing. |
 |
| This is my desk. Hopefully they won't need any thing in those boxes. |
 |
| Ted Dunham working at his desk as well. |
 |
| Peter Collins getting HIPO booted up for testing. |
 |
| The HIPO mascot. Well, it's the FLIPO (FLIPO = HIPO + FLITECAM) mascot at the moment. When FLITECAM isn't co-installed he loses his wings... |
