Flight Number: 88

Instrument Performance:
E-field picked up the Ground Control Station (GCS ) generator noise when the aircraft is near the trailer. After take off, this noise is absent.
After the landing in some rain, there was a very slight amount of moisture in the boom bulb. It was definitely not cold soak and looks to be some seepage through the joints. It is recommended that the joints be sealed with silicone to prevent this problem.
