===== How to Edit Flight Data =====

==Directory Structure==
To make an edit to a flight data file, begin by going to the directory in which the flight data file would be in. For example IMPACTS 2022 flight data is in /nas/und/NorthEast/2022/Aircraft/P3_N426NA/FlightData. Each flight has its own directory in the Flight Data directory. For example /nas/und/NorthEast/2022/Aircraft/P3_N426NA/FlightData/20220117_080140. In each flight's directory there will be a PostProcessing directory. This directory will have data from the M300. Instruments that use the M300 to collect data will be displayed in there.  


==Typical Files for Edits==

When editing flight files for an instrument, you want to make the edits at the base file, know as the .raw file.
