The DC-8 sampled the T-39 exhaust plume without contrails. The DC-8 also detected a weak tropopause fold. The T-39 provided emissions for the DC-8 to sample and also sampled the DC-8 emissions. The T-39 was able to fly at a fixed position (20-50 meters behind the DC-8) and sample the exhaust of the individual inboard engines.
