Better weather info from All Weather

By General Aviation News Staff · May 19, 2006 ·

All Weather, Inc. has released the Model 8340 Laser Ceilometer, the first ceilometer to use an eye-safe, low power, laser transmitter to measure the height of any cloud type, including cirrus ice clouds, from 0 to 40,000 feet.

It also is capable of simultaneously detecting and measuring up to four layers of clouds, providing reliable readings for pilots and meteorologists in even the most complex weather situations.
