Doug, a last hurrah of advice.  Write a checklist so that on the day you
won't forget anything.  Something like
1) Cameras loaded with all same ASA film
2)ASA set correctly
3)Lens clean front and back
4)lens cap off
5)Confirm film loaded correctly
6)Take a light reading, expose for the shadows, set all cameras the same
7)Confirm the location conforms to a 4X5 ratio so goes into an 8X10
8)If you are using the roof then the access door is unlocked, if a ladder
then that it is in place and safe
9)Check the lighting again, is it the same or has it changed?  Reset cameras
if necessary.
10)Go to your position and confirm all cameras are functional and film
positively advances.

Continue as necessary and good luck.
