Requests for access to research flight hours begin with the submission of an Initial Request for Aircraft Support (Word (35kb), PDF (30kb)) to the manager of the facility. Based on information provided on this form, a DOE-empowered advisory panel recommends to DOE an award of flight hours for the proposed use. Then the user completes a more detailed Research Aircraft Deployment Document (RADD: Word (180kb), PDF (85kb)) in coordination with the RAF manager. RAF users not associated with the DOE Atmospheric Science Program will need to work with the RAF manager on an estimate of the cost of offsite aircraft logistics such as 1) landing fees, 2) hangar rental, 3) ground support facilities, and 4) labor and expenses for a PNNL flight crew of two pilots and two scientific support personnel. During the preparation of RADD, schedules are confirmed and safety and environmental compliance requirements are addressed.
The RAF does not cover the cost of engineering studies and airframe modifications needed for custom installation of project-specific equipment and instrumentation. Such costs must be budgeted separately through a contract with PNNL or Battelle. When requested, RAF staff will assist users in estimating these costs.
Gulfstream-1 Research Aircraft
The G-1 is a large twin turboprop with performance characteristics of contemporary production aircraft. It is capable of measurements to altitudes approaching 30,000 feet over ranges of 1500 nautical miles, and can be operated at speeds that enable both relatively slow sampling and rapid deployment to field sites throughout the world. The aircraft is configured for versatile research applications. It accommodates a variety of external probes for aerosol, radiation, and turbulence measurements and internal sampling systems for a wide range of measurements. The G-1 has sufficient cabin volume, electrical power and payload capabilities, and flight characteristics to accommodate a variety of instrument systems and experimental equipment configurations. Internal instrumentation is mounted in removable racks to enable rapid reconfiguration as necessary. Data from most systems are acquired on a central computer that is tailored to airborne research data acquisition. In addition to acquiring the various analog and digital input signals, it can be configured to communicate with and/or control other systems onboard, and to provide time synchronization to other computers.

So yeah, expect to be called names, people sticking their fingers in their ears and people posting up youtube videos that have been posted and debunked a million times over.

Chemtrails are real

Anywho, look at your old family videos taken on family vacations, ballgames, concerts, outdoor party's, etc. No chemtrails in the sky, right? Look at old movies, cityscape weather videos (the kind you see during your Weather Segment) photos, police dashboard cams, other security cams, commercials, everything! You won't see any prior to 2000, depending where you live.

Things have started to appear in the sky that are lasting MUCH longer than a regular contrail.

Have you seen 2 Chemtrail planes side by side?

I don't know what chemtrails are, and neither do you.

But we can all agree they started appearing SOMETIME "recently."

We also can agree that whatever they are, they are not innocent in nature.

2000's: Uh oh! Things have started to appear in the sky that are lasting MUCH longer than a regular contrail. Geez, THAT'S weird!
