"Way-Back-Machine" -History View - Hurricane Research Division - Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory Re-Analysis Project - August 16th, 1943 marked the very first time an aircraft reconnaissance mission provided real-time information to the hurricane forecasters in the Weather Bureau. (This followed the curiosity tow flights by Col. Duckworth into a Texas landfalling hurricane a month previously.) This is from the unique microfilm archives in the NHC library, which NHC interns, Sandy Delgado and Astryd Rodriguez, are using on nearly a daily basis for the reanalysis work.
