Completing this course enables a pilot to perform basic tilt and range management functions while having a foundational understanding of how to analyze and interpret a weather radar display.
An airborne weather radar can be a great tool to help detect and avoid adverse weather during flight. The Garmin Aviation Weather Radar eLearning course goes beyond the content of weather radar pilot's guides to help you maximize the benefits of your weather radar system's capabilities. This course will introduce you to radar fundamentals, operational principles, industry standard practices and operational considerations and techniques for all phases of flight. This course also addresses the features, functions and operation of three of Garmin's airborne weather radars: GWX 70, GWX 75 and GWX 80, as well as reviews techniques employed for managing weather threats. The course culminates with an interactive exercise that allows you to manipulate the controls as various features and settings are reviewed.
You will learn:
Understanding of weather radar fundamentals
Increasing weather (situational) awareness through the combined use of preflight planning, airborne weather radar and NEXRAD
Understanding the capabilities and limitations of NEXRAD and airborne weather radars, and while they complement each other, why the two displays will NEVER look the same.
Cross-referencing the NEXRAD radar and moving map displays to better understand the weather situation and enable improved risk management decisions.
Managing tilt and range settings
Interpreting the weather radar display
Understanding the proper use of ground clutter on the radar display to ensure the proper functioning of the radar and to help determine the appropriate tilt setting
Understanding the Garmin GWX 70/75/80 weather radar features, functions and operation.
Understanding when to use GWX features such as Altitude Compensated Tilt (ALT), Ground Clutter Suppression (GCS), and Weather Alert.
Understanding the GWX 75/80 enhanced 16-color palette
Understanding the GWX 80 Automatic Mode and 3D Volumetric Scanning
Recognizing the need to operate the weather radar on each flight to ensure it is functioning properly when you need it, practice tilt and range management, and gain experience with interpreting ground clutter on the display.
Managing weather threats
Use of GWX-series features and other resources to identify, investigate, and assess potential weather hazards to aid decision-making
Tilt and range setting starting points by phase of flight
Long-range weather radar techniques
