NOAA P-3, G-IV, WB-57, and Global Hawk flight tracks on NASA MTS:

1) generate HRD TKMAP turns (track) and drops (GPS dropsonde) text files


2) ftp the turns and drops files generated by TKMAP to the HRD ftp server
	-ftp ftp.aoml.noaa.gov
	-user: anonymous; password: your email
	-cd incoming/hrd/dunion/shout/
	-put turns1.txt n872_turns_active_1.txt
	-put drops1.txt n872_drops_active_1.txt
	-uploaded files will be moved to the HRD pub directory within 3 minutes:
	-ftp://ftp.aoml.noaa.gov/pub/hrd/dunion/mts/
