"Dan's passion and intensity about airborne weather radar is infectious!
Having flown
with Dan at a fractional company many years ago I was fortunate enough to
learn many
things in using a radar. It is especially interesting and educational to fly
with Dan during thunderstorm season in the Midwest. At times flying with Dan was
like being with Capt. Ramius in the movie "Hunt for
Red October" ......."verify our range to target, one ping only". Dan is the
HAL 9000 of radar! The concepts that he teaches are not trivial. These are
concepts and skills that can be applied on every flight and ultimately save your
life."
R. Justice, Captain, Challenger 604

unit. He helped
me effectively interpret radar imagery." K. Low, Captain, Learjet
60
"Dan is a passionate, high energy and resourceful instructor with obvious expert level radar knowledge. He gave a captivating presentation on tilt management, radar shadowing and the use of ground clutter as a tool for situational awareness. Interesting how, Dan ties in echolocation of bats and dolphins to aircraft radar."
