[Julie Haggerty]

National Center for Atmospheric Research
Manager - Research Aviation Facility

NCAR Earth Observing Laboratory - Research Aviation Facility is a national
resource for the advancement of airborne research in the geosciences, with
a focus on the safe operation of research aircraft in a wide variety of
challenging sampling environments. RAF has been in operation since 1964,
serving the NSF geosciences community by providing research platforms and
expertise in airborne installations and measurement techniques. The
NSF/NCAR aircraft, together with their available instrumentation, offer a
level of sophistication and operational capabilities that are not generally
available for NSF programs elsewhere. A brand-new state-of-the-art RAF
building is currently under construction. The new building will provide
expanded laboratory space, expanded office space with plenty of daylight,
and a set of new collaborative spaces for staff and visitor interactions,
field project planning, real-time tracking of operations, and post-campaign
meetings. The completion of this $22 million dollar construction project is
expected by the end of this year.

What You Will Do: The EOL Research Aviation Facility (RAF) Manager ensures
effective and reliable use of NCAR aviation resources in support of
scientific needs by the broad scientific community. The RAF Manager
sustains a program of scientific research at the EOL Research Aviation
Facility to advance airborne measurement capabilities, guides airborne
instrument developments, oversees aircraft operations and maintenance,
sustains focus on safety of operations, and manages and supports RAF
employees.
