The distribution of diffuse [\N+] 205 microns emission perpendicular to the Galactic plane at l = 7fdg 28 has been measured from the NASA Kuiper Airborne Observatory and is compared with the distribution of emission by other atomic and molecular species. The profile of [\N+] emission, characteristic of warm ionized gas, is modeled as a Gaussian of 12farcm 9 ({+3farcm ) 2}_{-2farcm 5} HWHM. The distribution of [\C+] 158 microns emission, characteristic of predominantly neutral photodissociation regions, and first measured by Stacey et al. (1985) at the same longitude, has a Gaussian HWHM of 18farcm 4 ({+1farcm ) 9}_{-1farcm 6}. Line intensities are compared with those observed with the 7deg beam of the COBE FIRAS.
