NEXRAD SEMINAR (WEDNESDAY) DR. DAVID STRAHLE
A favorite among KAG attendees, Dr. Strahle,
will discuss the proper interpretation of NEXRAD images and how to apply the information in-flight and during advanced preflight planning. He will also present a NEXRAD update including recent critical changes to the data link. You won’t want to miss his seminar from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday, May 15.
Dr. Strahle is known as
the “Father of Datalink” due to a research paper he wrote in 1969 describing the far-reaching benefits of transmitting ground based weather radar to aircraft which resulted in initiation of the Datalink program. He has continued
to support Datalink by speaking at national aviation meetings and conferences.
Dr. Strahle is also a fellow King Air 200 owner/pilot.
