  9. The flight profile for the 19 October 1973 flight can be seen in Fig. 3 of C. K. N. Patel in the Proceedings of the expert Conference on Laser Spectroscopy of the Atmosphere, Rjukan, Norway, 15–21 June 1975 (Optical and Quantum Electronics, to be published). The vertical profile for the 22 May 1974 flight is seen in the Fig. 6 (A) of the present paper. Due to favorable climatic conditions, the balloon for this flight stayed within 75 km of the launch site at the Holloman AFB throughout its flight.
