NOTES
Weather
-
Storms started
forming along a cold front that had pushed southeast of Norman
-
The storms
farthest west were elevated with cloud bases at 16,000 MSL
-
Storms further east
were rooted in the moist boundary layer
Maintenance
-
Oil temperature
climbed to approximately 100 C on climb out.
Decreased 20 - 30 C while in cloud.
-
Video picture was
intermittent throughout the flight
o
Appeared to be a
loose connection since timestamp was not degradated
Operations
-
Coordination with
ops went well
-
Communications
were clear using the new ops headset
-
Using clock
positions for calling out relative storms worked well
