NOAA P-3 N42RF

Ocean Winds Test Flight

Flight ID: 060914H

Sensor or system	Number or Name

INE	1

Accelerometer	1

Temperature Probe	1

Dew Point Probe	1 (General Eastern)

Altitude (for vertical wind)	Radar Altimeter 159

Static Pressure	Rosemount Fuselage

Dynamic Pressure	Rosemount Fuselage 1281

Time Source	Micro 99

Constants File	CO2062.con

Notes:

There were no time/data gaps during this flight.

The King liquid water sensor was inoperative throughout the flight.

Altitude from inertial one and two were both inoperative throughout the entire flight.

Temperature and dewpoint values from sensor number 3 are also erroneous.

From takeoff through the end of the flight, radar altimeter 232 was inoperative. However, before takeoff, from 133301Z-133440Z, data from radar altimeter 232 was substituted into radar altimeter 159.

Otherwise, all sensors worked optimally during this flight.

SPECIAL NOTE!!!	Locations 80, 81 and 82 of record five on the standard tape contain

vertical ground, vertical air and vertical speeds, respectively, computed

using Dave Jorgensen's vertical wind algorithm.

It is recommended that these values be used for vertical wind analysis.

Takeoff	Landing

Aircraft Static Pressure	1012.1 mb	1010.9 mb

Corrected Tower Pressure	1012.2 mb	1012.9 mb
