The
day after Hurricane Katrina made landfall on the U.S. Gulf
Coast NOAA began aerial photography flights of the affected
areas. For nine days the NOAA Cessna Citation aircraft flew
two to three missions each day only stopping to re-fuel. Nearly
7,000 aerial images were produced from these missions. Click
