This upgraded system, to be operationally tested in early 1984, should provide the basis for modification of current LLWSAS installations and for improved system performance for future installations. Depending on the New Orleans test results, the FAA should modify existing LLWSAS systems and install improved systems at all high-traffic density airports with terminal automation systems (153 airports)

10. USE OF AIRPORT TERMINAL WEATHER RADAR OBSERVATIONS For terminal Doppler radar to be most useful to traffic controllers and pilots, a concerted effort should be devoted to developing procedures for analyzing, displaying, and using its observations.

13. AIRCRAFT OPERATING PROCEDURES The FAA should ensure that air carriers and other commercial operators instruct flight crews on what to do if they inadvertently encounter a l.o~altitude wind shear during takeoff or landing.

Particular attention should be paid to the possible adverse effects of heavy rain on aircraft lift, performance, and controllability, including its effects on wind shear detection and flight sensor systems.
