Attention is given to the detailed features of a servere microburst event, the flight behavior of a 727 airliner in such an event as predicted by a numerical simulation, and several low level wind shear detection and warning concepts. The Joint Airport Weather Studies project data sets are the basis of the numerical simulation. The calculation of meaningful flight paths under varying wind conditions for microburst avoidance is demonstrated.
