Circles that deviate from the standard HALO circle

The usual HALO circle was defined by the center at 13.3, -57.717 with a radius of 111 km. Two HALO circles deviated from the standard plan: HALO-0119_c1 and HALO-0215_c3. HALO-0119_c1 was flown with a smaller radius of ca. 92.5 km with the center at ca. 13.2858, -57.8989. HALO-0215_c3 was flown upstream of the usual circle location at ca. 13.8999, -52.0352 but with the standard radius of 111 km.

These exceptions have been added as irregularities to the respective yaml files.

Attached are two figures of the two circles. Gray is the planned "standard HALO circle" and blue the actual flight track. HALO-0119_c1
