Skyhigh,

Please do tell how well the infrared system works. I've been researching some of the websites on the net trying to size up their effectiveness. I realize the infrared won't see through a solid cloud deck, but I wonder how much sooner a person can acquire a runway while shooting an approach in the clag with it. Seems to be a boon for night ops, especially in and out of unfamiliar airports with terrain/obstructions.

Finally, is it the known ice Cirrus? I'm curious to know how effective the weeping system works...
