drive to test run the charts and plates program. Jump between functions, zoom, pan, flight plan, activate and drive by it, while watching for any delays or latency issues beyond the accepted six to 10 minutes between graphics updates. Practice moving between pages – navigation and weather, traffic (if available) and an approach plate. If overlaying is possible, be sure to exercise this capability. The goal of these sessions is to train for second-nature control of your tablet or EFB (or panel, if applicable) and, at the same time, learn which functions serve to slow down certain functions and how to avoid paying a penalty for the drag. If you’re running a traffic sensor as well, be sure you work it out in combinations that involve using the weather; and work them together sitting at an airport to gauge how well the traffic sensor relates the position of aircraft in the pattern with and without the weather running. Applies also to ADS-B In With the growing availability of ADSB In receivers that can work with tablets and EFBs, consider applying the same training standards and practice. Recent exposure to FIS-B weather graphics received via ADS-B In revealed the system to be faster in its refresh rate with less latency and better graphics and functionality. Of course, those are not the same receivers that get datalink weather from the subscription services. The weather service from this package comes thanks to the Federal Aviation Administration and its growing network of ADS-B ground stations. Not only are the FIS-B services provided free, so is the traffic graphics and alerts available from ADS-B In via the TIS-B broadcasts. Regardless of the source, latency will occur and sometimes vary. Learning the vagaries of using the system remains the best hedge against showing up in bad weather when the screen painted it all clear. q
