Users on the ground can view the flight track in KML at 
http://asp-interface-2.arc.nasa.gov/API/KML/FlightTrack/N817NA 

If anyone on the DC-8 wants to use Google Earth instead of the onboard moving map, they can use http://10.1.1.1/API/KML/FlightTrack/N817NA 

Chat instructions are attached since some people didn't get them.  If anyone needs help getting the chat software set up they should contact Mike Delaney.  If anyone flying tomorrow still needs it please download and install HexChat before getting on the airplane.
