Planes that fly through Hurricanes

Hello everyone. This is my first time posting to the forums and I am a New user to Flight Simulators. I have MS 2002.

Anyway, I was wondering. Does anyone know the name of the planes that people who study Hurricanes use to fly through them.

And I know this is probably a newbie question. But is it possible to simulate a Hurricane in MS Flight Simulator 2002.

I believe there is a hurricane hunter available. Search here at Simv first.

I don't know how far FS will support that weather aspect but I would suggest a regular weather download when you find one to fly into.

Anyone else done it??

Cheers

Hi, and welcome to the forums!  They use mostly P-3 Orions I think, with some C-130's thrown in for fun...

If you haven't found it already you are looking for the excellent work of Rick Sasala. The file is wp_3d.zip.
Perhaps one of the more knowledgeable members could post a link.(must learn how to do that one day)
