Based on discussion at the TRMM Microphysics meeting in Salt Lake (February 2000), the following flight legs were identified as priority cases for the May 2000 TRMM Workshop:
| Date (YYMMDD) | Time (UTC) | Latitude | Longitude | Notes |
| 990223 |
Start: 20:53:57 Stop: 21:03:37 |
-10.534 -9.907 |
-61.988 -62.039 |
The leg basically splits the
coverage area in two, with the ER-2 being within 5 km of the
Citation flight leg at all times and deviations along the leg by the Citation within 5 km. Citation flight level 25K. |
| 990221 |
Start: 19:58:49 Stop: 20:09:09 |
-10.509 -11.071 |
-61.263 -61.130 |
Er-2 right on top of the Citation for this leg. Citation flight level varied from ~13 K to 15 K (in the close vicinity of the stratiform melting level). |
| 990217 |
Start: 19:44:41 Stop: 19:56:31 |
-10.582 -10.652 |
-61.955 -62.047 |
Citation spiral band. Leg defined to split the spiral band in half and oriented approximately parallel to ER-2 flight track. ER-2 track was parallel too and a little southeast (couple km) of the Citation track. |
