ATL: ISAAC - Recon Discussion

[brunota2003]

NOAA49 is the Gulfstream flight? That one is an important one IMO.

Yes...look at item F. (shows the altitude at which the flight will be conducted), for the rest it is SFC to 15,000 ft...49 is 41,000 to 45,000 ft.

[KWT]

That Gulf stream flight is going to be really important for us I feel to get a good grip on the exacts of the atmosphere, it should help us to see whats going on with regards to the shear and dry air that is present.

Has the plane been flying at operational altitud almost since it left St Croix?

[Dave]

Yes not that far of a jump from St Croix to storm.

[cycloneye]

It seems like a more tighter wind shift at center than the more broader one of the first mission.

[Dave]

Could I get someone to take over please?

[Hurricane Andrew]

Will the P3 be giving data?

[KWT]

Not the best of wind shifts this time from the northern center.

[Hurricane Andrew]

Could someone please post images?

[Dave]

Anybody want NOAA 2? I'm only on for a little while until later tonight.

Also AF 309 is available too. hdobs on both & pictures if you can.

Here's the recon flight plan for Isaac. Green is completed missions, orange is on-going missions, and black is up-coming missions.

I'd like to incorporate a running list on one of these threads (e.g. the beginning of the recon thread)... any suggestions?

is it ok if I stay with the images for both for awhile as we have been doing? If not, tell me what you want. I can stay on for just awhile as well.

[CrazyC83]

I can take over the NOAA plane.

Yes that's fine, the hdobs are timed just right so I can grab both.

I can take over the NOAA plane.

Go ahead CrazyC83 & thanks!

I will in a little while...I'm ok on the AF flight right now. AT least today is better than yesterday...going back to my house & laptops tomorrow.

Artist, AF 307's mission is over - NOAA 2 is the only active one now.
