Okay, there were many posts on the Lionair thread about the possibility of microburst.
Given that the responses were all over the place on microburst, prevailing cloud cover, microburst detection, etc,... the intent of the post was to provide information to posters on this board about microburst mechanics.
It has nothing to do with the Lionair incident....
And here I was going to post about how about the differences between the different manufacturers of microburst detection systems on the aircraft....
