AIRPORT WIND SHEAR MONITORING METHOD AND APPARATUS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Wind conditions and anomalies in the proximity of an airport runway approach and departure flight path may be monitored by a plurality of airborne vehicles tethered in an array spaced from the projected runway ends and at graduated altitudes commensurate with the glide path altitude. Vehicle flight conditions are measured by ground level instrumenta- tion and transmitted to appropriate receiver and display equipment. Comparison of wind conditions at two or more flight path positions and altitudes will reveal the presence of operational conditions hazardous to aircraft. A remotely controlled, data measuring and telemetering vehicle tether is also disclosed which may be used in the aforedescribed combination or singularly for other aerological monitoring purposes. - 1 -
