Title: Complaints About Weather Radar
Post by: NickBartolotta on May 16, 2007, 08:22:48 PM

Listening to the ZNY ARD55/PARKE39/PTW92 feed at 18:13 EST tonight, there was a somewhat humorous exchange between the controller and an ExpressJet pilot, the topic being their weather radar, and where it was built.

 :roll: :-D

Enjoy!

Ha, excellent.  Yes, I have heard lots of complaints from friends about the radar on the Embraer jets.  In the CRJ, we enjoy a nice Canadian built radar system (a little better than the brazilians)

Maybe that ExpressJet pilot reads the New York Times... :wink:
