Air Recon Taskings for Tuesday/ Wednesday
53rd Weather Recon "Hurricane Hunters" are flying two missions a day into Bill, which is now a high Category 2. Ana taskings have been canceled. NOAA's P-3 and Gulfstream IV are beginning frequent research flights into Bill.
TEAL aircraft are often heard on US Air Force HF-GCS, and also making morale or logistical patches on Air Force MARS (13927 kHz USB).
NOAA uses normal civil aircraft frequencies for oceanic air control. Their Gulfstream IV flies at 45,000 feet, while the NOAA P-3 and 53rd WRS WC-130Js operate at 10,000.
Here are the two latest TCPODs (Tropical Cyclone Plans Of the Day):
