None of you mentioned the turbulence detection feature of the modern Wx radars. It won't detect turb where there's no moisture, but will do a fine job of highlighting areas of moderate and greater turb in the presense of precip, out to 50-60 miles.
How many of you line pilots are satisfied with the ground school you have received on CBs and Wx radar? Most training I have seen is pathetic. Airlines seem to assume their pilots have received the training by the time they are Air Transport Pilot rated.
