Hello, all
I found a very interesting case with Leonids-2009. It is below:

rev. Year  rd-re   ej. Vel. fM(fNP) sol.long max. Time   ZHR ex.
            AU       m/s              deg       UT
14   1533 0,00044   12,7   -0,073   235,539 17.11.09 21:40 241(!!)

So, you can see, that ZHRex for this encounter is 241! - is it
possible? I have to note, that ZHR formulas I use give values 7 for
1533 trail in 2003 and 32 for 1733 trail in 2004 - much lower than
many other researchers. It is difficult for me to believe. 2009
should be an extremely interesting year. Also, in 2009 and 2010
some other good encounters from 1533 and 1499 trails are very
possible, but I still need time to do calculations.

Best regards, Mikhail Maslov
