Re: Earl Approaching the Leeward Islands

Not 100% positive, but today may have been history in RECON flights/Research missions into a tropical System... G-IV completed the Star flight pattern over EARL... C-130 AF Recon is doing there low level invest patterns... P-3s are doing there research missions (both Planes every 12 hrs) and NASA DC-8 is done with its mission and is heading back to US.... not returning to St. Croix due to weather... NASA GV did move over to Barbados with other NOAA aircraft due to weather.
