False Return Displays
Ground radar stations or other airborne weather Radars may occasionally cause interference with
the presentation of the return. The effect of this interference is to create one or more radial bands
of false signal or noise extending from the bottom center outward to the outer range scale. These
effects are usually of short duration and are dependent on the airplane’s position and range from
the ground station, the signal strength, and other factors. The i-linc MFD will present all data as
returned from the radar sensor data bus. Caution should be exercised when interpreting a weather
radar display.
