Need to add density of air traffic routes to this view to fully represent challenges to flight operations

Transport of Megacity plumes and anthro/bio interaction raise certain areas of high priority for permission to fly over land:1-Cambodia and Laos (Thailand and Vietnam are expected)2-Malay Peninsula and 3-Malaysian Borneo

There will be a clear need to balance survey sampling versus process studies. How independent can the aircraft be in their operations for certain process studies. This issue will come to the forefront during the flight planning dry run in April.

TTL flights will be largely dependent on dynamical forecasts (e.g., CLAMS). Chemical forecasts are unlikely to be of value for tweaking anticyclone flight plans. We should look into satellite products that may help…MLS?

Consolidation of chemical forecast guidance should be considered.
