Microburst, airplane, and sensor characteristics relevant to the development of crew procedures are summarized. A set of system requirements and performance standards which are consistent with microburst and airplane performance characteristics have been developed. It is suggested that an evasive turn to avoid a microburst is not required for airplane survival, if the microburst detected in time to effectively perform the turn. The use of straight-ahead recovery procedures will reduce the impact of windshear equipment on the ATC system and prevent secondary hazards.
