Steffany Royal: Storm Pilot
When storm clouds gather in the sky, most people run for cover. But the American pilot Steffany Royal jumps in her car and heads to the nearest runway. As a member of a weather modification team, her job is to fly into the storm and seed the clouds with a chemical to encourage rain in an area of drought or even suppress hail in order to protect crops for farmers.
