Guide to Decoding Reconnaisance Schedules
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
A = Requested on-station time for each complete pattern.
 
B = Mission identifier. Part of the aircraft's tail number is in that.
 
C = Estimated time of departure from originating station.
 
D = Departure Station (KHST is Homestead, Florida. I think that you and
the weather community has these.)
 
E = Forecast position of storm / hurricane.
 
F = Destination station (where aircraft is scheduled to return).
 
G = Pattern to fly. The only one he had time to tell me is that ALPHA
is an X pattern with 105 mile legs. They go in, fly about 105 miles,
exit, go counter-clockwise and then fly the other 105 mile leg.
 
H = The forecast movement to be used calculating each pattern location.
 
I = Comments.
