CLEARANCE Interactive Lightning Detection Training Software by EFS

Write a Review
Learn to discriminate between active and passive weather detection. More Info »
|
Inadvertent weather encounters still account for a great number of aviation accidents. Much of the cause of those accidents is the lack of timely local weather information in the cockpit. Radar, lightning detectors and now Data-link NEXRAD systems can provide the necessary weather information in real-time (or slightly delayed with Data-link).
Unfortunately, the complete weather picture is often missing or difficult to obtain from a single source. Additionally, the interpretation of in-flight weather information relies on experience or many hours of training.
This, the lightning Detection Course, is the first of three volumes (the next two, Data-link Weather and Radar will be released soon).
At the very core of the self-paced of the training program is the ElectronicFlight CompleteLearning Methodology that focuses on the following basic elements:
Instill conceptual knowledge, instead of rote memorizationImplant mental models (a picture imprinted into permanent memory)Present the conceptual organization of a systemProvide requisite knowledge using highly graphical methodsReinforce knowledge with targeted practice exercisesImplement hands-on skill development with a knowledgeable Flight Instructor
After successful completion of a module, the operation, and familiarity, of a piece of avionics should become second nature when it counts the most under the pressure of high-workload situations in the cockpit.
Upon successful completion of this CompleteLearning module the student will be able to:
Discriminate between active and passive weather detectionList the three stages in a thunderstorm's lifecycleList the three types of lightningDescribe the method of lightning detection methodologyDescribe the inputs and outputs of a typical lightning avoidance systemRecall a mental image of lightning detection symbologyDescribe the two cell display types and their useDescribe a lightning detector self-test sequenceRecall a mental image of the display control layoutFormulate strategies for weather avoidance using a lightning displayIncorporate lightning detection into decision strategiesRecount the limitations of lightning detection, and much more
Minimum Hardware Requirements:
PC compatible, 64MB of RAM, 266MHz Processor, Sound Card, Windows 95 or higher, Approximately 100MB of hard disk space per module. Not MAC OS compatible.
