Cumulus congestus - analog and digital














On course Liege (EBLG) when flying through a cumulus. The weather option of the Moving Terrain is a great help in knowing what´s ahead and avoiding when in IMC. Combined with the JeppView data it gives a detailed situational awareness of where in the approach what precipitation can be expected.

Pic 1) Immediately before entering (nothing to see in it - besides bumps and rain)
Pic 2) A view on the moving terrain showing the cell nicely
Pic 3) When taxing back to the apron and the cloud seen in the back
