Scientific paper

A small fragment of Leonid storm video data from the 1999 Leonid Multi-Instrument Aircraft Campaign is analyzed visually at exhaustion to measure the detection efficiency of visual scanning techniques and calibrate the meteor flux at the peak of the storm. The high meteor rate makes it possible to obtain statistically meaningful results over short time intervals. We arrive here at a flux estimate for the peak of the 1999 Leonid storm of 2.8+-0.4km^2/hr (m < +6.5), a factor of two higher than reported elsewhere.
