Team work

Another hot day above Cyprus.

We departed Larnaca quite late as dr. Luka Drinovec needed data in condition when hot ground make thermals which mix atmosphere. Such condition are not good for engine, so we had to be very careful and monitored temperature indications of water, oil and exhaust gases. Luka coordinated time of measurements with dr. Michael Pikridas from The Cyprus Institute who performing drone flights with their instruments. We overflew their drone airport close to Agia Marina and again complete the route according to the plan. After the flight Michael came from Nicosia, right to the Dynamic where he calibrated their instrument they use on the drone.
