AIRCRAFT INSTRUMENTATION WP-3D Flight Level Data (T, P, RH, WD, WS, etc. Radar – LF, TDR GPS Dropsonde Cloud Microphysics Stepped Frequency Microwave Radiometer - SFMR (Ocean Surface Wind Speed) IWRAP – Ocean Vector Surf. Winds W-band Radar Aerosols/Chemistry Flight Level Data (T, P, RH, WD, WS, etc. GPS Dropsonde TDR SFMR – Surface Wind Speed Ozone CO G-IV

  4. WP-3D CLOUD PROBES Cloud Combination Probes (CCP). There are two instruments in a CCP: A Cloud Imaging Probe (CIP) and a Cloud Droplet Probe (CDP). Note that one of the CIPs has been modified with Anti-Shatter Tips (Korolev Tips). Precipitation Imaging Probes (PIP). Cloud Aerosol Spectrometers (CAS) with Particle by Particle Update (PbP).
