Hi all,

Interesting discussion and whilst we are on the topic. As one that has only really experienced using a 360 RADAR optimised for surface search ie preriscopes etc I have a question in reference to the use of weather RADAR with its various modes for search ops.

Are there any good rules of thumb that we can apply when using these RADARs for search operations in order to get the best out of them ie range, tilt (I know there are lots of variables).

We won't be using ours for IMC let downs et al just as another search tool.

Thanks in adavance.

Turkey
