Colored smoke streams from smoke grenades mounted on a 210-foot tower swirls in the wind created by a passing aircraft. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
A 39th Tactical Airlift Squadron C-130 Hercules aircraft trails white smoke from its wing tips as it passes a 210-foot tower that is fitted with colored smoke grenades. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
Colored smoke streams from smoke grenades mounted on a 210-foot tower as a 63rd Military Airlift Wing C-141B Starlifter aircraft makes a low-altitude pass. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
Colored smoke streams from smoke grenades mounted on a 210-foot tower as a 75th Military Airlift Squadron C-5A Galaxy aircraft makes a low-altitude pass. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops

A National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) work crew replaces the used smoke grenades in the frames mounted on a 210-foot tower. The smoke grenades are being used by researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory who are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
A C-5A Galaxy aircraft makes a low-altitude run near the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL). Researchers at INEL are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
A worker makes a notation as a C-130 Hercules aircraft passes overhead. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices created by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
Off the coast of Wisconsin on Lake Michigan, aircrew members from the 128th Air Refueling Wing, General Mitchell International Airport, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, onboard their LRU-15/F-2B 20 Man Life Rafts, light signal flares during survival training. The red smoke will help them stand out against the gray water when the rescue aircraft close in on them. The aircrews are part of Exercise WHITETAIL 2001
White smoke released from the wing tips of a passing aircraft mingles with the colored smoke released by smoke grenades fitted on a 210-foot tower. Researchers at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory are investigating the wind vortices creasted by the passage of an aircraft and the effects that those disturbances would have on low-altitude parachute drops
