Flying Into a Tornado (With a Model Plane)

I saw these guys set up at the National Storm Chaser Convention back in January, but I didn't know they were going to do anything THIS cool!

So, did they ever recover the HD vid probe?

Now, what would be *really* cool would be if they could fly into the tornado and release a container to make the tornado smell of delicious, wholesome bacon. "Hurry Martha! The twister's a-comin'! Oooh--waitaminute...mmmmm...bacon..."

Of course, you have to watch "Storm Chasers" on Discovery this fall to find out! :-) (Actually, Reed said they recovered them from the corn field).
