CI Aql only seen with difficulty on May 31.976 UT, hence the class 3
observation. I also attempted to observe it on Jun 2.976 UT and
Jun 3.995 UT, but it was invisible to a limiting magnitude of 10.6.

Comparison stars (NAS.VSS sequence with VT magnitudes from the
Tycho-2 catalogue): 8=10.1; 9=10.6.
