**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Nov 10 11:40:59 2003 MST Nov 10 11:40:59 --> You are now talking on #C130Q Nov 10 11:49:31 --> anstett (~c0375a14@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 11:57:07 Hi Janet. What's the word? Takeoff time? Nov 10 11:59:18 they are taking off at 2 EDT for 3 hours. Heading to Kentucky. Nov 10 12:01:20 I've been making some changes to the flight track, so you should have a look later and tell me what you think. Nov 10 12:05:42 Great. I'll have a look. Nov 10 12:08:53 They just took off heading west. Nov 10 12:08:53 Why Kentucky? I don't see any weather there. Nov 10 12:09:33 There's some weather that they are interested in down there in westerm Kentucky. Nov 10 12:14:03 They are looking at the weather before the front moves in for a possible flight tomorrow to Mirabel. Nov 10 12:14:32 Thanks. Nov 10 12:22:05 --> blanc-c130 (~ads@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 12:32:35 Janet, so X marks the current location and the green line is "recent." How recent? How about adjusting the map scaling. It's still a bit squished. Nov 10 12:33:09 I like the info the colors add! Nov 10 12:35:57 --> dcrogers (~80755499@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 12:38:20 I don't have a lot of control over the map scaling. Green is the last 300 points. I may change the 300 depending on how it looks when they are doing legs over the same location. Nov 10 12:49:12 Sonia here. Jorgen, (or anyone else) do you know can I use winds to look at PMS accumulations over time periods longer than 30 s? Nov 10 12:52:14 Sonia here. Never mind... Bill got me set up.

Nov 10 13:37:30 Hi Ron, Nov 10 13:37:55 Aerosol sampling upwind of Mirabel; in this case over Kentucky Nov 10 13:38:49 I was wondering why you were traveling so far from your "home" base. Nov 10 13:39:36 <-- jbj has quit (CGI:IRC (EOF)) Nov 10 13:39:49 --> jbj (~c0375a14@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 13:48:36 --> spuler (~8075410b@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 13:54:24 <-- spuler has quit (CGI:IRC (EOF)) Nov 10 13:55:34 Jorgen, how long a flight are you planning? Nov 10 13:56:20 <-- blanc-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Nov 10 13:56:56 4 hours est. Nov 10 13:58:46 --> blanc-c130 (~ads@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 14:30:37 --> hercules-c130 (~ads@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 14:33:47 --> sabl-c130 (~sabl@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 14:35:47 --> spuler (~d172ea7b@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 14:36:49 janet, if scott is there with you tell him sabl is working and he can contact us on irc, thanks, gary Nov 10 14:38:25 hi gary Nov 10 14:40:10 hiya scott Nov 10 14:40:54 How is SABL temp? Nov 10 14:40:56 --> beaton (~beaton@sbmac.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 14:43:00 21 in pressure box, but we're only at 1.4 km. It was fine on ferry too, but even there the outside temp was only around -10 Nov 10 14:44:09 Pitch and roll limits are working too? Nov 10 14:45:00 mr. beaton, hurry up and get out here, need another hand to handle instruments Nov 10 14:45:11 we had suspicious signs from the tape drive early on, but since the last hour sabl has been stable and the pitch and roll checks are working too. still a few things to check into though. i don't get to go home yet. Nov 10 14:46:25 I'll be there wednesday afternoon, arriving about 3:30! Nov 10 14:47:12 But I'm confident everything will be working fine by that time. Nov 10 14:48:55 truly, things seem to be running more smoothly with each passing day. Nov 10 14:49:18 Gary - bruce M. suggested we look at SABLs data configuration - looks like to much data is being written to the tapes... Nov 10 14:51:08 ok Nov 10 14:51:45 enjoy the rest of the flight Nov 10 14:52:08 --> cowan (~c0375a14@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 14:52:53 Bill, I am here at the airport if you need anything. Nov 10 14:56:31 Bill, is the Nevserof probe working okay? MS is interested. Nov 10 14:57:17 <-- spuler has quit (CGI:IRC (EOF)) Nov 10 15:08:10 Bill, do you know your ETA? Nov 10 15:11:52 hey guys, left for a bit Nov 10 15:12:39 yes, we set the nevserov probe to what jeff wanted, slightly bias positive so they could more easily see changes...i'll show you guys what he wants later, but we can't use auto balance this way Nov 10 15:13:07 we are currently at this altitude, 2 hours away from cleveland Nov 10 15:13:44 dew pointers look very good, tracking the entire time i've looked Nov 10 15:13:57 balanced both of them Nov 10 15:14:37 we're currently heading to mirabell?? on our way back some north Nov 10 15:15:12 Bill, is the Nev working? Does the data look good? Nov 10 15:16:03 My your heading way north if you are going to Mirabell. You going to stop for gas or run on fumes up there. Nov 10 15:16:19 we need to get into water, haven't seen much if ANY water this trip...however I haven't been watching that as closely as others Nov 10 15:17:32 this flight has mostly been an inlet sample flight/test, no rain seen here Nov 10 15:18:20 We looked at the liquid water and did see a couple of small spikes. I agree theough it looks pretty dry. Nov 10 15:18:33 we did fly over Theresa's relative's houses...she's excited Nov 10 15:19:23 Mike wants to know that when you are in clear air if the Nev and the PLCW read about the same? Nov 10 15:20:07 One experienced tech can handle the load, when things run smooth as they have today..even spent a little time explaining Winds to others Nov 10 15:20:18 --> cockpit-c130 (~ads@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 15:20:47 Startup is a pistol..but otherwise it's ok, we'll see about shutdowns Nov 10 15:20:59 Just wondering, what was the delay at takeoff? Nov 10 15:21:32 they lost our flight plan...airport did Nov 10 15:22:17 Okay, we were worried it was something bad. Nov 10 15:22:33 Please let us know when you turn to home. Nov 10 15:23:18 we're slowly heading that way Nov 10 15:23:34 Jorgen - do we debrief at the airport or hotel? We should be back in 1.5 Hrs John, Nov 10 15:24:33 My understanding is that the debrief will be at the hotel. Nov 10 15:24:45 george, wsi in it's display of status shows no rx check cable and power and wx data shows idle Nov 10 15:26:02 we've also lost gpsl so no more flight track, clicking button doesn't bring it back Nov 10 15:26:20 George says that is normal. If your update times go red there is a problem but otherwise that is the norm for those displays with both computers up. Nov 10 15:26:36 we were getting weather data and tracks, when the status was telling us we were not Nov 10 15:27:05 ok, any ideas on gpsl?? can't seem to get it back Nov 10 15:28:17 George says that to get GPSL back you will have to reboot the laptop. It will mean that you will also have to restart the cockpit display once you get the laptop up again. Nov 10 15:29:05 ok, not worth it at this time..thanx Nov 10 15:29:15 You are only missing that on the laptop. The other display should have that data. Nov 10 15:29:19 <-- cockpit-c130 has quit ([x]chat) Nov 10 15:44:31 Bill could you get a new ETA. I want to check the accuracy of calibrated sticky notes. Nov 10 15:44:59 --> spuler (~c0375a14@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 15:46:56 we're still climbing, can't get one until we're up and level Nov 10 15:47:10 it's dark out, think i quit the video's Nov 10 15:47:44 That's okay. We have our estimate and we will see how it works once you get a new ETA. Okay on the videos. Nov 10 15:50:31 we're one hour out Nov 10 15:51:03 Ok I'll pass that along. Thanks Nov 10 15:55:01 hey, how do you turn off cpi?? its not on checklist Nov 10 15:55:51 disable recording in the cpi window in upper left. Nov 10 15:56:08 one button further to the left, click on stop probe. Nov 10 15:56:27 then file exit out of program and shut down machine. Nov 10 15:56:32 then power down?? ok Nov 10 15:57:09 Speaking of videos, did you stop the network camera recording? Nov 10 15:57:37 not yet, people sitting there, although it's totally dark out Nov 10 15:57:38 Yes you can power down. Nov 10 15:58:01 --> cockpit-c130 (~ads@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 15:58:47 we are at about the halfway point of the ferry Nov 10 15:59:09 estimate arrival in 48 min Nov 10 15:59:34 jorgen, did you decide on a debriefing place? Jeff Nov 10 16:05:13 shut down cpi ok Nov 10 16:05:54 turned off rear camera, was taking a while to download data... Nov 10 16:07:29 Hi Jeff, Nov 10 16:07:54 Ok on the rear camera. Nothing to look at anyway. Nov 10 16:08:08 I would like us to do it quickly here at the airport. Are there any serious issues that we should spend extra time on? Nov 10 16:08:58 thersa is upset she's missing perogie night at hotel !! Nov 10 16:09:29 Well tell then to light the AB's and get here quicker .

Nov 10 16:10:04 <-- sabl-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Nov 10 16:10:49 --> sabl-c130 (~sabl@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 16:10:51 The suggestion just keep coming in. Som not suitable for transmittion. Nov 10 16:11:14 just as soon as we find some afterburner switch we'll light it Nov 10 16:11:57 It should be right next to the Jato switch. Nov 10 16:12:31 this is going to end up a 12 hour day Nov 10 16:13:49 Yep. I don't want to come in at 0800 and then work to 2200 at the earliest. I am proposing that I come in at about 1000 if the flight is at 1400. Nov 10 16:14:09 we're right over your hometown george, dayton Nov 10 16:15:01 George says to drop a fuel tank. He does not seem to miss it much. Nov 10 16:16:50 how do you shutdown xchat from hercules Nov 10 16:16:50 what if flight is earlier than 2...will they commit?? Nov 10 16:17:36 <-- cockpit-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Nov 10 16:17:40 I don't know I have not asked Jorgen. I guess we will find out at the briefing. Kok got sucky again. Nov 10 16:17:58 --> cockpit-c130 (~ads@ras18.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Nov 10 16:18:43 I guess I should have said that Kok took sucky again. I;m sure we will get it back. Nov 10 16:18:55 I think we can keep the debrief pretty short, if we allow time tomorrow for flight planning discussion Nov 10 16:22:49 Bill, We're going to go get ready for you to come in. See you then.
