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

From Bob Wells:
The flight  with the WB57 to underfly both AQUA and METOP in Oklahoma was reasonably successful.  There was more cloud than hoped for and a large thunderstorm had to be avoided but most instruments worked well. There was some loss of TWC data (pre-flighter/operator misunderstanding) and one of the 13 dropsondes misperformed.

Gaynor’s hopes of a wild last night in Houston were dashed when an early (0815L)take-off  on Saturday was called and most of the team retired early.
