Hurricane Hunters track down Alberto
The WC-130J Hercules features a cockpit packed with the latest in computer assisted flight and navigational controls used to "chase" hurricanes. These systems enhance the situational awareness of crews and allow them to focus on their in-flight tasks. The WC-130J is flown by aircrews from the Air Force Reserve Command's 403rd Wing at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss. The 403rd is the only Department of Defense unit with the designated mission of flying into hurricanes to gather critical data for the National Weather Service. (U.S. Air Force file photo)
