TOGA COARE soundings derived from NCAR Electra flight level data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.146

Summary
This dataset consists of soundings derived from National Center for
Atmospheric Research Electra flight level data. Data were taken during events
of opportunity. The data were processed through the visual quality control
process. The automated and spatial quality control processes were not
conducted on this dataset. This dataset includes pressure, temperature, dew
point, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and altitude taken at
five second intervals along the flight path. Refer to the station README file
for details.
