	Welcome to AOC.NOAA.gov
		The Aircraft Operations Center is a Center of the NOAA Marine and Aviation Office.
		The mission of AOC during this program will be to conduct airborne operations as required for the purpose of collecting data required to satisfy the objectives of Ocean Winds Winter.
		The purpose of a snow survey mission is to collect data that accurately measures the moisture content of soil or snow to aid in the timely forecasting and warning of spring snow melt flooding and the prediction of impacts to agriculture, water supply, and/or recreational activities.

		AOC informed SEFC that in light of the numerous requests for the Twin Otter, AOC was looking into acquiring a second Twin Otter aircraft, but cautioned that the acquisition process could be lengthy and that SEFC should not assume it would have a second aircraft available in time to meet all its needs.
		Hoggard explained that the Twin Otter aircraft, operated by NOAA pilots, was preferred for this project because the aircraft is ideally suited to perform offshore marine surveys, its twin aircraft engines and trackline visibility were essential to completion of the study, and NOAA pilots had extensive experience in flying the aircraft to perform offshore surveys.
		AOC could assign an aircraft if the request was for a period of time not covered by the NAAC-approved schedule.

	NOAA 200th: Foundations: NOAA Aircraft
		Aircraft with better performance characteristics and more sophisticated instrumentation were needed to achieve the goals of both hurricane research and the organization's many other projects.
		Both of these turboprop aircraft were outfitted with two weather research radars specially designed to provide scientists with data that was, and still is, being used to unlock the secrets of hurricane dynamics.
		AOC may also be called upon to support national disaster search and recovery efforts and damage assessments.

	NASA - Hurricane Aircraft -- Technological Marvels That Fly Through Storms
		The aircraft are 63 feet long, with a wingspan of 104 feet and the top of the vertical tails are 16 feet above ground when the aircraft is on the bicycle-type landing gear.
		These versatile turboprop aircraft are equipped with an unprecedented variety of scientific instrumentation, radars and recording systems for both in-situ and remote sensing measurements of the atmosphere, the Earth and its environment.
		Obtained as new aircraft from the Lockheed production line in the mid-70's, these robust and well maintained aircraft have led NOAA's continuing effort to monitor and study hurricanes and other severe storms, the quality of the atmosphere, the state of the ocean and its fish population, and climate trends.

	FAA Order 7210.3, Facility Operation and Administration
		Although sampler aircraft are flight planned to the suspected atmosphere area of nuclear contamination, the aircraft are likely to require altitude and route changes which cannot be anticipated prior to departure.
		When conducting these missions, aircraft from the 53WRS will utilize the call-sign "TEAL," and aircraft from the AOC will utilize the call-sign "NOAA." Due to the unique nature of these missions it is necessary to provide a degree of special handling to ensure that sufficient meteorological data is collected.
		The supervisory specialist(s)/CIC shall monitor the movement of the OPEN SKIES aircraft from the flight's entry into the facility's airspace until the flight exits the facility's airspace, to ensure that priority handling, separation, control, and coordination are accomplished.

	A HISTORY OF HURRICANE RECONNAISSANCE
		Reconnaissance aircraft penetrate to the core of the storm and provide detailed measurements of its wind field as well as accurate location of its center; information that is usually not available from any other source.
		Aircraft data coupled with data from satellites, buoys, and land and ship reports, makes up an important part of the information available to the hurricane specialists for their forecast of speed, intensity, and direction of movement of the storm.
		If the storm is in its infancy, such as a depression or tropical storm with winds less than 50 mph, then the crew operates as close to the surface of the sea as can be done safely, usually about 1,500 feet.

		This list of aircraft is sorted alphabetically, beginning with the name of the manufacturer (or, in certain cases, designer).
		It is an inclusive list rather than an exclusive one, meaning that where an aircraft is known under multiple names, designations, or manufacturers, each of these is listed.
		This list does not generally include variants or subtypes of the aircraft themselves (although there is considerable difference among various manufacturers and designation systems as to what constitutes a new aircraft as opposed to a variant of an existing type).

		The development of dropwindsondes, small instruments that are deployed from the aircraft and transmit data back to the aircraft, has enabled meteorologists to get temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed and wind direction data from the altitude of the aircraft down to the sea surface.
		It all started when a mechanic from AOC decided to spruce up a bedraggled P-3 that was unkindly called "the pig." He drew up a picture of Miss Piggy in a flight suit grasping a lightening bolt and renamed the aircraft.
		NOAA's hurricane hunters and other aircraft are operated, managed, equipped, and maintained by the Aircraft Operations Center, located at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla. The aircraft are crewed by officers of the NOAA Corps, the nation's seventh service, and civilian meteorologists, flight engineers, and electronics engineers and technicians.

		An aircraft may be issued a Canadian C of A whether or not it is imported with an Export Airworthiness Certificate, provided it can be shown and the Minister is satisfied that the aircraft conforms to an approved type design and is in a condition for safe operation.
		The aircraft may also be intended for operation in a role that requires the installation of additional equipment such as medivac or fire supression or where specific operational rules require the installation of certain items of equipment such as Flight Data Recorders, survival equipment, Ground Proximity Warning Systems and so on.
		For aircraft that will be imported and added to an Air Operator Certificate (either commercial or private), additional airworthiness and operational requirements must be met prior to operation of the aircraft.
