Can Pilots See Turbulence on Radar?

Weather radar can spot the thunderstorms that cause convective turbulence — but it is essentially blind to clear-air turbulence, the kind that injures most passengers. Here is what pilots can and cannot see, and what they rely on instead.

What Pilots Actually Do During Severe Turbulence

A look inside the cockpit during a severe turbulence encounter — from pre-flight planning to autopilot decisions to the specific control inputs pilots are trained to make and avoid. Based on FAA guidance and airline operating procedures.
