Low Rate Navigation, State Parameter, and Microphysics Flight-Level Data
[NCAR/EOL]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/240.001

Summary
This data set includes airborne measurements obtained from the NCAR Research
Aviation Facility (RAF) C130 aircraft (Tail Number: N130AR) during the Sulfur
Instrument Test (SIT). This dataset contains low rate navigation, state
parameter, and microphysics flight-level data in NetCDF format.
