The Australian Transport Safety Bureau recommends that the Civil
Aviation Safety Authority ensure that operators of aircraft
equipped with weather radar provide pilots with initial and
periodic recurrent training on the use and interpretation of
weather radar, and its limitations.
The following response dated 22 March 2003 was received from the
Civil Aviation Safety Authority:
CASA acknowledges the intent of this recommendation and advises
that while this is normal practice within the industry, the
Authority will consider including an article on this topic in a
future edition of the Flight Safety Australia magazine.
CASA advised 25 March 2004 that an article would be included in the
May-June issue of Flight Safety.
