Datalink weather, either from ADS-B or SiriusXM, is an essential tool for almost all pilots. Once you’ve flown a cross country with in-flight radar, up-to-date METARs, and visual AIRMETs, it’s awfully hard to go back to flying without it. It makes flying safer, easier, and more comfortable – a rare combination – but only if you know how to use it properly.
Join Air Facts editor John Zimmerman for an in-depth look at datalink weather.
And if you’re considering a datalink weather receiver for your iPad (like a Sentry, Stratus, or GDL), one of the first decisions you’ll face is the source of your weather data: ADS-B or SiriusXM? This webinar will explore the important differences to consider.
Air Facts began in 1938 with Leighton Collins’ vision to promote private air transportation. Today, as an online journal, Air Facts brings pilots together by sharing real-world flying experiences that inspire learning, good judgment, and a love of flying.
