Daily Mission Planning Process and Schedule
Coordination with the
NOAA Winter Storms Research Program (WSRP) will drive the daily mission
planning process. TOST mission planning will begin each afternoon after
notification by the NOAA G-IV Project Manager or flight crew as to whether the
next day has been tasked by NCEP as a WSRP flight day..The NOAA Gulfstream IV
aircraft's primary tasking is in support Of the WSRP. On WSRP fly days the TOST
will have the option to operate (fully or partially) in conjunction with the
scheduled WSRP flight track or to operate independently. NCEP's WSRP tasking is
received from CARCAH in Miami by 8:30 a.m. HI local time (13:30 EST) for the
next day's work. The standard NOAA aircraft launch time is 20Z (10 a.m. HI
local time) +/- one half hour. Flight duration is from 6.5 to 8 hours for the
Gulfstream IV aircraft the same as for the NASA ER-2.
A TOST operations
meeting will normally be held daily at 3 p.m. in building 2055, Hickam AFB. To accomodate participation
by those at the Air Services Hawaii TOST Office and elsewhere, a telcon
connection will be provided to the meeting.
