Launch of Ozonesonde and Minisonde was successful, however issues with the Windsond laptop battery resulted in shutdown of the laptop and permanent data dropout for the Minisonde. Replacing battery and/or using a different laptop should resolve this issue.

Balloon package landed in a farming agricultural complex with easy recovery. Package landed quite hard due to the parachute tangling upon descent. Fast descent resulted in the loss of the sensor radiation shield for the Minisonde and general iMet radiosonde damage.
