Abstract:

The MC3E ER-2 Navigation data files contain information recorded by an on board navigation recorder (NavRec). In addition to typical navigation data (e.g. date, time, lat/lon and altitude) it contains outside meteorological parameters such as wind speed and direction and temperature. These ASCII text files are recorded every second for the length of the sortie.
