FIS-B PIREPs

Pilot Weather Reports (PIREPs) provide timely weather information. When
significant weather conditions are reported or forecast, Air Traffic Control (ATC)
facilities are required to solicit PIREPs. A PIREP may contain non-forecast
adverse weather conditions, such as low in-flight visibility, icing conditions,
wind shear, and turbulence. PIREPs are issued as either Routine (UA) or Urgent
(UUA). The update rate is approximately every 20 minutes.
1. While viewing the FIS-B weather page, touch the Menu key
2. Touch the PIREP key to toggle PIREPs on or off.
