Extensive experimental and theoretical studies of auroral and equatorial electrojet irregularities have been conducted for the last two decades. The present investigation is concerned with electric field and plasma density fluctuation measurements made on board of the Porcupine II sounding rocket and on a free-flyer ejected from the main spacecraft. The Porcupine II sounding rocket payload was launched at 1922:00 UT from Kiruna, Sweden, on March 20, 1977. The considered results show electrostatic turbulence in the unstable auroral E region confined to a layer between 96 and 121 km. The similarities between the observations of two simultaneous payloads spaced a few kilometers apart indicate that on a large scale, the electrojet turbulence displays uniform characteristics.
