This dataset is comprised of a series of PDF flight summaries that describe the general microphysical characteristics that were recorded along each flight leg for the 9 research flight missions of the WINTRE-MIX NRC Convair-580 aircraft. Each summary includes a written overview of the IOP and orientation of performed flight legs as well as a description of the microphysical characteristics of cloud measured along each transect by the NRC Convair-580. Several figures are provided for each flight leg detailing microphysical parameters such as particle number concentration and mean size distributions measured across these periods. Particle imagery from the 2DS probe is also provided for select periods across all flight legs to demonstrate the cloud composition of the weather systems of focus for each flight. General atmospheric state statistics are also provided in these summaries, as well as any data limitations observed with the parameters provided in each summary.
