weather modification plane specs - please help me.
Hi. My name is Steve Davies, I am a writer. I am currently working on
a story about weather modification in the Sahara desert. A pilot in a weather modification lands in a Sahelian village to refuel. The story is about villagers' different attitudes to what he is doing. I am appealing to you experts for a bit of plane info, because I know nothing about this area. What kind of plane would be used for weather modification programs in a developing country (dumping silver iodide crystals on clouds to precipitate rain)? Can you suggest a model name so that I can find out more? What kind of fuel would it take? Is it conceivable that it could run on normal motor gas or diesel?! what would it look like? Is it possible there would be just one man piloting it? Any help you could give me would be hugely appreciated. thank you. Steve |
