For the past 30 years, NASA Langley has been involved in the development and application of airborne diode laser instruments. Our current suite of instruments provides in situ measurements of carbon monoxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor for use in studies of atmospheric chemistry and transport, evaluation and improvement of computer models, and validation of satellite measurement data. Recently, we have also used our water vapor instrument for measurements of cloud optical extinction. This talk will cover some of the history of the instruments, the current technology, and data from recent measurement campaigns.
