London LARS - an update for GA Pilots published by NATS June 2009

Farnborough LARS has been available to pilots of aircraft operating to the west of London for a number of years and is a well utilised service.  In September 2007 coverage extended to the area around the Gatwick CTR/CTA with a further extension around Luton and Stansted's airspace coming on line in March 2008.  All three services are referred to collectively as London LARS with the callsign Farnborough Radar

 

Windshear

The link above is to the Hong Kong pages of this website, giving access to a booklet published by the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO); prepared in co-operation with the International Federation of Airline Pilots (IFALPA) and the Guild of Air Pilots and Air Navigators (GAPAN). It is provided for education and reference setting out to explain what wind-shear and turbulence are, how it is caused.  Particularly it refers to Hong Kong International Airport, but the general information contained will be of interest to all aviators.
