NRC Convair 580 Aircraft State Parameters
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/570.008

Summary
This data set contains atmospheric and aircraft state parameters from over 30
instruments that were operated by the National Research Council of Canada
on-board the NRC Convair-580 aircraft during ICICLE (In-Cloud ICing and
Large-drop Experiment). The atmospheric state data include 3D winds,
temperature, pressure, and relative humidity. The aircraft state data include
aircraft positions, roll and pitch angles. The data are provided in a NetCDF
format together with a data guide and html quick-looks of selected variables
for easier browsing.
