HAZARD AVOIDANCE
ECHO TOPS
NOTE:
Display of Echo Tops cannot be displayed at the same time as Cloud Tops and NEXRAD.
Echo Tops data (Figure 6-14) shows the location, elevation, and direction of the highest radar echo. The
highest radar echo does not indicate the top of a storm or clouds; rather it indicates the highest altitude at
which precipitation is detected. Information is derived from NEXRAD data.

Displaying Echo Tops information:
1)
Select the Weather Data Link (XM) Page.
2)
Select the
ECHO TOP
Softkey.
To display the Echo Tops legend (Figure 6-15), select the
LEGEND
Softkey when Echo Tops is selected for
display. Since Echo Tops and Cloud Tops use the same color scaling to represent altitude, display of these
weather products is mutually exclusive. When Echo Tops is activated, NEXRAD and Cloud Tops data are
removed.
