End of the campaign

The ferry flights from Tainan over U-Tapao and Abu Dhabi to Oberpfaffenhofen went well, HALO arrived in Germany on Monday afternoon.

On my way back I paid a short visit to the Taipei 101 tower before catching the flight to Frankfurt.

The dismounting of the instruments started on Tuesday, on Wednesday afternoon our colleagues brought the C-ToF-AMS back to Mainz (a big thank you!), and today we could set it up in our lab where it will remain until the next HALO campaign (CAFE-Africa, June - September 2018)...


C-ToF-AMS back at MPIC!

This is also the end of this blog. CU!

Preparation for departure

Today we prepared everything for the first ferry flight to Abu Dhabi tomorrow. The flight will be a measurement flight, so we need to start early (4:00), because some instruments need warm-up time. Take-off is scheduled for 08:30 local time, expected landing at Abu Dhabi 20:00 local (3 h time shift). I will not be on board of HALO during the ferry but will take a regular flight to Bangkok in the afternoon where I will land around 06:00 on Sunday morning before travelling by bus or taxi to Pattaya (close to the airport U-Tapao where HALO will land on Sunday evening for the second overnight stop). The lake at Weßling (near DLR) is still partly frozen (see picture), so we will experience a strong temperature contrast between here and Thailand.

More flights

Sorry, I didn't post any news, but that's because we are busy flying every other day. So one more flight on the 24th and one on the 26th. Today I was mission PI. The flight was the longest up to now, 9 hours and 3 minutes. And this tight schedule will continue! Next flights are planned for 30.03., 01.04., 03.04. and maybe 05.04. But if that's possible remains to be seen, weather and instruments might cross our plans. Tainan City short after take-off on 26.03.2018 View onto the top of HALO and the gas and aerosol inlets.
