With a 12 foot wingspan, this "Super-Hauler" will be capable of carrying 8-10 weather data and HD video probes, that will be dropped in the tornado inflow region and pulled into the circulation by a parachute system. The tornadovideos.net plane will be deployed in Tornado Alley beginning late season 2009.
