This is an excellent record; however, the speed sensor's
rotorcounter failed briefly in lines 3394 through 3408 (1630
3 Dec 90 - 0630 4 Dec 90). CMDAC has prepared an alternate file
in which this gap in the speed series was bridged by means of a
predictive filter.  Both versions of the record are available
at this site.

Move up one level.
