TD looked ok, but was red in MM. Restarted the pallet, that did not fix it. Turned hygrometer off and back on, that did not fix it. In the storm environment TD randomly flashed green a couple of times, but overall stayed red the entire flight. 1-sec data flashing red started at 1433Z. Closed MM and reopened and it had stopped at 1437Z. Not sure if closing MM helped or it would have stopped anyways. The SFMR (US009) winds were reporting 35kts when drop reported 12kts and visual winds were 9905 at the end of the fix mission, around 1850Z. Looking into the SFMR the 7.09GHz frequency line was in line with the envelope at the beginning of the flight, but at the end of the flight after flying the storm it was seperated significantly from the envelope (~4-5K). Suspect that water may have gotten into the POD. Wrote it up in the forms and returned Alpha3 to KBIX. Started on C and switched to F at 1616Z because it was verifying better. Had intermittent FOM issues on C, very high (5+ at beginning and end of flight) Penetrations Logged: 4 ARWO:____________________________________ Penetrations Verified: Verifier:____________________________________ Penetrations Posted: Awards:____________________________________
