9213GM21 This is my fit to Garcia-Melendo's data when a
+3.5 mmag meridian flip zero-shift was applied to data after 24.9 UT.
Zero shifts matter and the reduced chi-square criterion allows for
a wide range of zero-shift values. Consequently, uncertainties for mid-transit
time, length and depth are greater than for any single zero-shift assumption
(using chi-square). My subjective interpretation is that mid-transit HJD
= 4876.30 +- 0.15, length = 11 +- 2 hrs, depth = 8.9 +- 0.5 mmag. The publication
by Garcia-Melendo & McCullough give 4876.33 +-?, 11.3 +- ? and 10 +-?
mmag.
This is my fit to Garcia-Melendo's data. Thanks, Enrique, for sharing
your data with AXA. No zero shift was applied to meridian flip at 24.9
UT, as suggested by Garcia-Melendo.

After egress (beginning of observations ~1.1 hrs after egress).
Before ingress (end of observations ~10 hrs before ingress).

Miscellaneous Information
Greg Laughlin produced this diagram of the HD 870606b orbit
before the transit of 2009 February 13.
Greg Laughlin's depiction of the geometry for the
primary transit of 2009.02.14 (created before the event).
Since Arizona observers failed to see an egress on the day before
the Europeans observed egress it is possible to place an upper limit
on transit length: L <= 12 hours. This is illustrated by a graph
that Greg Laughlin posted on his oklo web site. Here's a "lift" from
that web page:
Greg Laughlin's constraint on L (from oklo web site: http://oklo.org/
This helps constrain the "impact parameter" (ratio = closest arc
distance to star center ÷ star radius) to ~ 0.85.
