The NG will only issue reactive WS warnings below 1500 ft AGL, and predictive WS warnings below 1200 ft. FZ also use HGS, a piece of kit that will help you with the monitoring if you know how to use it.
I dropped by the FZ ops center a few years ago when I attended pilot selection in DXB.
Just wanted to say hello and see how they did their stuff.
I was immediately told pilots are not allowed to enter the ops center. That struck me as really weird and was part of the reason why I turned them down.
For me it is essential to have a good working relationship with ops.
Said a thing or two about the company culture and attitude toward their pilots.
