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

From Bob Wells (FAAM BAE Flight Operations Manager)

B286, a night flight with the WB57 over the Gulf started the day. This underflew the A-Train (AQUA, CALYPSO and CLOUDSAT satellite formation) in broken cloud conditions. The cirrus was above 35000feet so the BAE146 could not get in situ data.

The rest of the day was spent recovering from nocturnal activity and planning a FAAM (only) daytime flight for Wednesday for the Gulf of Mexico AQUA pass.
