Watch the Weather Uplink Delay

Post by pelmet »

Not only is there a delay in the time for the Nexrad weather picture to get to you airplane, it may have time delay info that is misleading as it is the time to be sent to the aircraft, not the much longer time it took for the image to be generated before it was sent to your aircraft.

Starting this video at 7:17 gets to the critical info....
