TOGA COARE soundings derived from NOAA P-3 flight level data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.145

Summary
This dataset consists of soundings derived from National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) NOAA-42 and NOAA-43 flight level data. Data
were taken at events of opportunity. The data were processed through the
visual quality control process. No automated or spatial quality control were
conducted on this dataset. The dataset includes pressure, temperature, dew
point, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and altitude taken at
one second intervals along the flight path. Refer to the station README file
for details.
