Joint Airborne IASI Validation Experiment (JAIVEx) at UW-Madison SSEC/CIMSS

Monday’s flight is intended to underfly the 1450 (local) overpass of Aqua in the CART site region (takeoff ~ 1220). Note that we have also added a flight for Tuesday; this is to underfly the 1136 (local) Metop overpass of the CART site region (takeoff ~ 9 AM). (From Allen Larar)

A review of the latest forecast after Sunday’s flight caused the Oklahoma detachment idea to be abandoned (for next week at least). The prospects of unsuitable conditions on Tuesday and Wednesday caused a return to Plan A - an Oklahoma AQUA pass refuel flight on Monday returning to base in Houston in the evening.
