WP2.3.2 2.3.2: Clear Air Turbulence Detection, Warning and Avoidance System Definition

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Turbulence Problem

Turbulence is a major hazard for aviation. Despite the continuous avionics technology progress (including the weather radar), the number of turbulence accidents has increased by a factor of 5 since 1980. Part of this is due to the increase of traffic, but the rate of accident per million flight departures has also increased by a factor of 2 since 1980. more...
