PMS-2D Two-dimensional Cloud Probe data [NCAR/EOL]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/72.112

Summary
This dataset contains raw (binary "filmstrip" imagery) files of PMS-2D data
collected by the C-130 during the "Eastern Pacific Investigation of Climate"
project which took place from 1 September 2001 to 15 October 2001. 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.
