Incredible footage has been captured from the cockpit of a Lockheed WP-3D Orion as it flew inside one of the most powerful hurricanes ever recorded in the Atlantic.
The Orion, known as Miss Piggy, is a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) aircraft which plays a key role in collecting data for tropical cyclone research and forecasting.
One of two hurricane-hunters, the aircraft’s footage shows the crew calmly proceeding with their mission despite being hit by turbulence caused by the hurricane.
