He will probably ask differrent folks to check in but already has scheduled me to say hello from c130. Will check on ADS. Feb 26 09:10:23 Looks fine on this terminal Feb 26 09:10:58 probably at SATCOM glitch. won't be very interesting for Michael Feb 26 09:11:04 Al it looks like it was a quick drop. I noticed that Darrel did a time out just s few minutes agao. Could have been ac tracker also. Feb 26 09:11:53 BTW, It is Michel, not Michael Feb 26 09:12:48 ok. thanks for the correction. ION back to normal now. peak winds around 28 m/s Feb 26 09:13:51 He would not have enjoyed this flight! How soon can I get filestonight? We lierallly have the smoking gun here.

Feb 26 10:03:49 I will try. I've been having trouble getting high ressolution access Feb 26 10:04:00 When Carl look at it this am it did not show any of the winds we see here Feb 26 10:05:34 --> cockpit-c130 (~ads@ras54.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Feb 26 10:06:39 When you click for high resolution, Quickscat may ask you to save the file say yes and then load it onto a new powerpoint slide to view it. Feb 26 10:10:06 the best pass does not show the event. the alternate pass has a big gap nearby, but has some indication of an event Feb 26 10:12:01 Thanks Al, we have so far been able to follow the jet core Feb 26 10:13:23 no help from this end. looks like a solid case, but your flight plan is changed from the normal. no map of the jet core this time? Feb 26 10:13:57 normally you tansect out and work your way back in Feb 26 10:14:17 when are you going to drop the sondes? Feb 26 10:18:03 Yes, we have a different plan from what we did before, We are Feb 26 10:19:08 This is Michael Rosengaus, talking through allen schanot slot. How high are the waves? Feb 26 10:20:38 basically doing 4 x-wind legs at 100' at each "station" starting from close to shore all the way outbound when we dtermine that the wind/wave action has subsided. At that point we will climb to 4000' and head inbound while dropping 10-12 sondes. Feb 26 10:24:34 Michael, Leonel is checking on the wave hight, visually they look pretty big, nothing like yesterday! Feb 26 10:29:02 --> bruce (~80754e6d@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Feb 26 10:32:09 Ron, can you see this. Feb 26 10:32:11 Bruce, you're talking!

Feb 26 10:35:41 Jonathon, How are things going? Having a good time? Feb 26 10:38:49 The system is running good, just keeps going, knock on wood, and yes I am having a good time. Feb 26 10:44:00 Glad to hear that. I will be in and out of my office but will monitor chat if you have any questions.

Feb 26 11:24:08 Earth to Al Feb 26 11:27:46 looks like we lost the c-130 people with a SACOM drop Feb 26 11:29:19 The question I have concerns getting a file that I saved on /ads. We did a print screen and saved it and would like to put it on am? memory stick, or maybe it will be on the disk taken off the syste Feb 26 11:29:23 is chat working Feb 26 11:29:35 <-- schanot has quit (CGI:IRC) Feb 26 11:30:13 --> schanot (~c8417d56@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Feb 26 11:30:21 Hi Al Feb 26 11:31:10 hello everyone. lost the link on our end for a while. Michael has left to make his connection to Mexico City Feb 26 11:32:31 Lowell- I just sent you the crew manifest for the return ferrry. it has the information you require. Feb 26 11:33:28 Janet- I sent you something on the RICO requirements for computer space. advise when ready Feb 26 11:33:59 i'm looking at it. Feb 26 11:34:23 Larry- we have pulled the plug on the Satelite link. the "pros" did no better than you did Feb 26 11:39:52 Al, I received the manifest. thanks, I'll work on that Feb 26 11:44:32 --> campos (~80755494@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Feb 26 11:46:02 Did anyone see my question about recovering a png file that I saved? Feb 26 11:47:49 So you have a png file on the laptop on the airplane that you want to get on a system on the ground? Feb 26 11:49:38 Hi Janet, we did a print screen then saved it as an image in png format. It seems to have been saved inthe /ads directory. This a winds screen on the front right laptop. Feb 26 11:51:15 I think the machine is calledblanc. I'd like get the filesince it really is a nice example of how to use winds. Feb 26 11:53:53 ftp to hercules as ads user; cd to /jnet/r1; you should see .ads files for today flight named 150rf??a.ads where ?? is the number of the research flight; put your png image here; cd to /jnet/r2; put your image here also; that way your image will be on both removables and then have allen get the file off of the removable for you after the flight. Feb 26 11:58:55 Thanks. I'll give it a try. Feb 26 11:59:36 --> clyde-c130 (~ads@ras54.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Feb 26 12:06:26 <-- campos has quit (CGI:IRC (EOF)) Feb 26 12:14:36 --> stith (~807554bd@linus.atd.ucar.edu) has joined #C130Q Feb 26 12:16:20 Janet, I don't know the password to use as "user" Feb 26 12:17:15 you should log in as ads, ask the tech on board for the password. Feb 26 12:17:28 Got it Feb 26 12:22:46 We have a memory lapse at the moment, but Al will be here at the end of flight and can probably help us. [] Feb 26 12:27:55 The directory on hercules to put the image in could just be /r1 instead of /jnet/r1. If you see the data file from today's flight, then you know that you are in the correct directory. Feb 26 12:28:56 Looks like you guys are having a good flight Feb 26 12:29:25 The RICO group really liked the demonstration, BTW Feb 26 12:30:18 Janet, thanks. Jeff, great flight, great crew, tough flying but great data. I'm glad the demo went well for Mike. Feb 26 12:31:04 Janet- I don't know the new ADS password. you could email it to me. Feb 26 12:32:40 Here is a question for people at home : How can I got the Long and lat from fly map computer Feb 26 12:33:26 Janet, mission accomplished. It took two guesses but I figured it out.[] Feb 26 12:34:18 Jeff, how was Olga's presentation? Feb 26 12:34:20 everything still on track for a 1630 return? Feb 26 12:34:56 I'll ask Feb 26 12:36:26 Darrel, Olga did great. I hope we can coordinate our measurments with her. Feb 26 12:37:23 I'm off to return to the RICO meeting. Keep up the great work. And pass along my thanks to the flight crew for their hard flying efforts. Feb 26 12:39:54 Mike or Bruce, is it ok/safe to lase down at 4000 feet over the coast? Feb 26 12:40:40 Al, pilots estimate between 4:15 and 4:30. Feb 26 12:41:22 Mike is out for a while. I don't think reflection will be a proiblem with this sea state. should be no eye safety issues over the water. Feb 26 12:41:44 Thanks Darrel. Feb 26 12:42:32 Jonathan, it will be 20-30 minutes before Mike returns. I assume you need an answer before then? Feb 26 12:44:03 20-30 minutes should be ok. Thanks. Feb 26 12:52:28 <-- stith has quit (CGI:IRC (Ping timeout)) Feb 26 12:59:18 Al, I don't think that Hercules has the new password. You might start with the old one and then try the new one. Feb 26 13:00:19 Ta, You have the Lat Lon on ADS. Are you looking for some way to see them on the Jeppsen chart? Feb 26 13:01:25 i'm 99% sure that hercules has the new password. Feb 26 13:03:35 anyways, darrel said that he did figure out the password on hercules. Hercules is the new one and most of the laptops on the plane are most likely the old password. Feb 26 13:07:58 Yes!John PI want lat&long able display on Jeppsen gird chart Feb 26 13:09:14 Let me see if Larry knows. Feb 26 13:09:47 Also Just let you know ADS have a new Password Feb 26 13:13:03 Ta, We cannot figuar it out here because we do not have a Jep display. They should be able to see that Lat Lon on the laptop. You could mess with the computer by you and see if you can get it to come up. Sorry. Thanks for the info on the pasword. I'm glad you klnow what the new one is. Feb 26 13:15:30 If Larry is around, I forgot to acknowledge his questionon RDMA. It seems healthy, biggest problem is maintaining 80% humidity on neph. Feb 26 13:16:23 Okay!Thanks John. I will try Feb 26 13:20:15 mike is back. Jonathan Feb 26 13:22:09 jonathan, do not lase down over land except in the lagoon area at the north end of this track Feb 26 13:23:37 jonathan, if you are 1000 meter above ground over the lagoon it is ok to lase down Feb 26 13:24:13 OK, that is what I thought, Thanks! Feb 26 13:25:11 how deep is the boundry layer today? Feb 26 13:25:24 just to make sure, just hte lagoon and not the coast line, is this right? Feb 26 13:28:03 you probably will not be above 1000 meter on ferry to/from airport. the rule is no lasing over ground except in the lagoon area and no lasing looking down if below 1000 meter Feb 26 13:28:56 thanks Feb 26 13:29:54 going to have lunch overlooking the pool in a chair that does not bounce or shake Feb 26 13:37:04 hey Ta. Is the top dew pointer still showing significant oscillation? Feb 26 13:47:58 Yes! It does! I will print it to you.Look like top& bottom dewpointer do the same thing Feb 26 13:48:53 <-- lmurphy has quit (Leaving) Feb 26 13:56:48 Ta. Balance the top dewpointer. leave the bottom one alone for now. Feb 26 13:57:52 Okay Al Will do Feb 26 14:06:53 I've got Bill here. What is timing for the drop and the latest on Huatulco ETA? Feb 26 14:09:27 Al. We are checking but expect ETA as earlier sent. Feb 26 14:10:40 Allen Feb 26 14:11:01 Allen: Do you copy? CARL Feb 26 14:11:39 OK thanks. you might ask Ken which phone Axel has. I can update them if need be as need be Feb 26 14:11:59 yes carl. i'm here Feb 26 14:12:32 AS: Axel has ...5497 Feb 26 14:13:29 thanks. techs tell me major grid lock on road to airport. they have not moved for 5-10 minutes. cause uncertain Feb 26 14:14:00 AS: We are starting 100 foot runs near Salina Cruz. Don't knowexactly when we will be over Gala to the BT drop CARL Feb 26 14:14:53 OK. they just left to get set up. I will monitor chat until 1540. then leave for the airport. Feb 26 14:21:41 Al, Shelley says we need to book the hotel rooms and charge the credit cards for the Rico Projedt now. Should we doit now. Shannon wants some guidance Feb 26 14:24:21 <-- sabl-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Feb 26 14:24:27 al, the reeason we are asking is that 3 days will be charged to the card. Shannon is seeing Gerry to see if we can use another credit card to hold them all Feb 26 14:24:29 <-- clyde-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Feb 26 14:24:34 <-- darrel-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Feb 26 14:24:34 <-- cockpit-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Feb 26 14:24:42 <-- hercules-c130 has quit (Ping timeout) Feb 26 14:25:07 Yes, but! I thought the plan was to have NCAR prepay the rooms. This will be very hard for people to handle on personal CC. Which do they propose? Feb 26 14:26:14 Looks like the 130 went offline. Feb 26 14:26:16 i thought the rooms had to be completely prepaid months in advance, if not immediately on booking Feb 26 14:27:47 on some projects NCAR just pays all the rooms on a contract. then people just gets the base perdiem for the rest. Feb 26 14:28:24 that would be best in this case. jORGEN HAS THE TRAVEL SPECIFICS ON EVERYBODY Feb 26 14:29:42 I don't think my credit card can handle any more at the moment. particularly since the phone lines from here are part of my bill and I don't know what that is going to come in at! Feb 26 14:29:46 Shannon is calling the hotel to see if we can use one credit card to reserve all of the rooms Feb 26 14:30:39 Shannon has the dates and the people but that could change if some one quits or new hires etc Feb 26 14:30:54 OK. We do need to take action right away, though. BB says there will be over 104 non-NCAR researchers on the island for RICO. Feb 26 14:31:25 we'll just have to adjust with necessary changes. better to have rooms in hand for the rest Feb 26 14:31:34 That means we really do need ot get our foot in the door! Feb 26 14:31:45 i agree Feb 26 14:33:27 John: ION data feed is also down. you want to try and call them via the std SATCOM? Feb 26 14:35:31 I can try Al. I will have to try and find the number. Feb 26 14:35:44 they had a fairly long drop out earlier Feb 26 14:36:28 I saw that also, but not all the computers dropped off chat at once. I think I have the file online. Feb 26 14:36:32 they are due back between 1615 and 1630 local anyway. just nice to know they are still safe and flying Feb 26 14:38:15 got to go in five to make the airport in time. grid lock on the road today according to kurt. they didn't move for 5-10 minutes. said it was clearing though Feb 26 14:38:52 Okay Al I will try and give them a call. If I cannot get thru or find them I will call you on your Cell. Feb 26 14:41:16 thanks. i'm out of here! Feb 26 14:41:55 cell phone coverage is spotty on the road to the airport. Feb 26 14:42:52 I'll just keep trying. I'm still trying to find the numbers.
