Scientific paper

We report on current plans to explore the Leonid meteor storms of 1998 and 1999 from two airborne platforms in a multi-instrument aircraft campaign. With science proposals pending, we received an opportunity to validate some of the optical and astrometric techniques during two flights that coincided with the return of the 19997 Perseid stream. The airborne observations monitored the same region in the atmosphere that was covered by a three-station ground-based campaign in mid-California, This paper gives a brief report just days after the event, in style with campaign reports from active amateur meteor observers worldwide.
