Always good to remember that not all turbulence is visible to the radar. No water, no indication. The so called Clear Air Turbulence. So always keep those seat belts fastened to avoid having the plane's ceiling hitting your head.

[@sukhoy]

Very accurate description, its exactly like that, the ceiling is the one that comes down with the plane while the passengers keep traveling ahead by innertia.

Thank you! Please keep these awesome videos. I thought about your work when I flew on Emirates 777-200LR last month!

[@ibraheemnabeel]

Happy to support you if you need it in any shape or form!

[@mlopez4666]

good explanation and animations . Thanks

This channel is pure gold

[@cryogenicflare5040]

Amazing video and great channel! Is the distance travelled by the plane after the first ping is sent out to when it receives signals back negligible due to the radio waves travelling at the speed of light? Which is why the formula is divided by two

[@AircraftScience]

Yes, it is negligible and safely ignored.

@@AircraftScience Nice. Thank you!

Welcome!

[@capt.imanuddinyunusshmh.6549]

Thanks for sharing.. good for review knowledge during PPC..

[@GULFSTREADREAM]

Great explanation and very interesting

[@ea-13]

One of the most amazing videos I have ever watched. I need to use some graphics of the engine in your video.

[@AircraftScience]

You can take screenshots as per your requirement.

[@AircraftScience]

Yes, go ahead.

Watching this after having spent the whole day avoiding weather 😅

[@cocojeffrey8502]

how does the radar detect turbulence? at a guess can it recognise cumulonimbus clouds?

[@jeredh]

Radar cannot detect turbulence itself, only moisture. Convection, drafts, windshear, unstable air and turbulence are all products of the moisture that radar sees. The pilots can extrapolate these related phenomena from the moisture they see

[@randomes919]

why there is a fqggin aesa radar that is used for just weather

[@qrubmeeaz]

Poorly researched and written, ai voiced rubbish!!
