So happy you were able to experience that!!! So cool!!!!!!!!

[@travispowell2471]

They have 2 planes. One for the guys flying into the storm. And one to haul their balls flying behind them. These are brave people.

[@sebastieng-r9764]

honestly these guys have balls of steel for flying into a hurricane, but I would take this job any day of the year as a pilot, thats a kind of thrill you wont get tired of. landing home knowing you just made 7 passes of a hurricane must feel accomplishing.

[@vesawuoristo4162]

Awesome, you were able to do that.

[@seanarnold9513]

I'm happy you got the chance to do this. Was there a time during the flight that the crew made a discharge of a probes into the storm to gather additional data?

[@birdmaster69]

Hey props to that camera guy for stickin to it with you!

[@MyRadar]

Jack's a trooper! 😄

What a brave woman

[@richierich5470]

So how did you help us this time??

[@Marty13B]

17:00 minute video to only show 30 seconds of hurricane footage. What an absolute waste of time

[@E-WayPoota]

Yeah all i wanted to know from this video is, Do they fly above the storm, in clear skies, and then drop down in to the ‘eye’? Like essentially parachuting in to a stadium… Or do they enter from the outside of the storm and fly directly through the outer and middle walls and winds of the storm, like with the stadium analogy, fly right through the bleachers/stands until they reach the center eye?

So cool!

[@jacquelinebell6201]

That was fascinating! I couldn't do that for 5 mins lol. 🤢😊
