The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has conducted the atmospheric observation flights over the Sagami-Bay for the following purpose using the experimental aircraft Beechcraft 65. (1) Periodic gas sampling in cooperation with the National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES), (2) In-flight evaluation of newly-developed automatic Continuous CO2 Measuring Equipment (CME), (3) Aerosol observation flight for the development of an airborne turbulence detection sensor; LIght Detection And Ranging sensor (LIDAR). In order to conduct research on long-term atmospheric changes in the areas adjacent to large cities, it has been requested that the observation flights be carried out periodically over Sagami-Bay near Tokyo, where there is heavy air traffic. All observation devices are installed in the aircraft in order to maintain observation frequency and reduce long flight times. This paper presents details of the atmospheric observation measuring system, procedure adopted for the observation flight and the typical results.
