Hurricane Earl - NOAA Non-Tasked Flight (Earl8) landed in Tampa, Florida?

I think that Non-Tasked NOAA Flight (Earl8) - that while it was not tasked, seemed to fly patterns over Hurricane Earl, and now the eagle seems to have landed in Tampa, Florida.

Google Earth screen shot showing Non-Tasked NOAA Flight (Earl8) flew some patterns over Hurricane Earl…

… And later seemed to have landed in Tampa, Florida

“We copy you down, Eagle., You’ve got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We’re breathing again. Thanks a lot.”

(that’s actually an excerp from Nasa Communications during the Apollo Lunar Landing. But then again we often joke about The Eagle has Landed in a lot of situations.)

 Interestingly… that’s an awful lot of dropsondes and data for a “non-tasked” flight. We thank you! NOAA Earl8 … “She sure was a good ship!”.

Ericsson W35 released in the USA. This you’ve gotta SEE!!
Better looking presentation than W25 (you might not want to
hide this one in the Doghouse!) + High Speed Upload which
the W25 did not have.
