Commercial airborne weather-radar technology for operators of general-aviation aircraft who are contemplating radar installation; design parameters are discussed within context of performance; design tradeoffs are related to specific end uses; installation suggestions are included to help user avoid subjecting radar to conditions which detract from performance and reliability; selection of radar best suited to particular aircraft increases utility of aircraft, and also safety of operation within given weather margins; bulky long-wave-length radar can deeply penetrate storms cells to permit weather-penetration flying; short-wavelength systems are best for weather-avoidance flying.
