Abstract:It has been known since the beginning of air flight that an
aircraft leaves in its wake a pair of highly concentrated,
counter-rotating trailing vortices. With the introduction of
jumbo jets, the vortices generated by these aircraft can become
a real hazard to smaller planes especially near airports where
encounters are frequent. In the interest of safety and airport
efficiency, it is desirable to remotely detect the vortices in
order to avoid a vortex encounter.
