International audience During NAWDEX coordinated flights with the German research aircraft HALO and the French Falcon were performed; both equipped with similar payload at different wavelengths to study wavelengths effects on retrieved properties and synergistic analysis. Additionally A-Train underpasses with HALO were performed during NARVAL and NAWDEX. In our presentation we will give an overview of measurements and instrumentation and show first results of the airborne-airborne and airborne-spaceborne comparisons.
