LIP Status
Flight Date:
Sunday, August 15, 2010
Sortie Number:
15-8-2010 Range Flight
All Electric Field Mills (EFMs) have been installed. The Combined System Test (CST) on 14-8-2010 verified that LIP operational. Still waiting for Conductivity Probe (CP) installation (need to get update on when this will occur). Lack of conductivity probe is not critical, since conductivity can be estimated (but direct measurements provide most accurate knowledge of in-situ conductivity at altitude of aircraft).
Ground-based FM will be installed in upcoming week. This data will be used in verifying calibration of the airborne EFMs.
LIP status is considered GREEN at this time.
