Mike
Thanks for sharing !
Truly awsome!
Can you imagine being in a hunter plane!?
There is a weathercaster on the weather channnel who is a Captain with the Air National Guard who flies missions on the hunter aircraft.
I have seen the planes in Biloxi and once or twice flying overhead here in SW florida during tropical storms/ weak hurricanes.
Unreal!

Killer video Mike! I enjoyed watching that and kind of experiencing what it's like for those guys that fly into these massive storms. I especially liked the parts when the lightning struck and it would luminate the entire cockpit. Oh and I forgot to mention seeing the eye on radar. Well done. _________________ Chris

That would be Nicole Mitchell---This is part of her bio from TWC
In 2003, Nicole transferred from the National Guard into the Air Force Reserves, where she now works as a Weather Officer for the Hurricane Hunters, a unit which performs reconnaissance missions into tropical weather to gather data which aids in the forecasting of tropical storms and hurricanes. Storms she has flown into include hurricanes Charley, Frances, and Katrina. _________________ GO NOLES
