| Purpose of Flight: | Science | ||||
| Comments: | Very successful science flight that included 7 vertical profile maneuvers. We were unable to conduct a low-pass at the Tenerife TCCON site due to concerns with the weather minimums at Lajes. We needed to conserve fuel in case required to divert to Lisbon. Portugal. Thankfully, the weather was good for landing when we arrived at Lajes. The aircraft and science instruments landed at LPLA in good shape. | ||||
