GALE: Electra Photography Cloud Videos
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/172.011

Summary
This dataset consists of mpg files from video tape (VHS) from flights of the
NCAR Electra aircraft during the Genesis of Atlantic Lows Experiment (GALE).
Included is rare subcloud layer footage of an extreme cold air outbreak on
January 28, 1986. This dataset contains forward and left-looking video.
WARNING: This is a big dataset. Each mpg file is about 1.3 GB. Each order can
contain a maximum of 16 GB of data. For very large orders, it may be
preferable for you to access these data via a loaner external hard drive.
Please contact Steve Williams (sfw AT ucar DOT edu) for these very large
orders.
