PMS-2D Two-dimensional Cloud Probe data [NCAR/EOL]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/107.036

Summary
This dataset contains raw (binary "filmstrip" imagery) files of PMS-2D data
collected by the C-130 during START08. Summary data have been merged with the
"NCAR C-130 Navigation, State Parameter, and Microphysics LRT (1-sps) Data"
These data are in a format compatible with xpms2d, available from the EOL
xpms2d download page. Click on "Order" to see a table listing flight dates and
times during which data is available. The instrument was being repaired during
RF15 and RF16 so there are no PMS2D data for those flights.
