The crash of USAir Flight 1016 from Columbia to Charlotte led to the creation of Charlotte's first radar and the fast-tracking of the FAA's terminal doppler radars to airports nationwide. This week on the Carolina Weather Group podcast, we revisit a 2019 conversation about how this deadly microburst forever changed how weather is forecast and monitored in the world of aviation. WCNC Charlotte Investigative Reporter Nathe Morabito and Chief Meteorologist Brad Panovich explore the lasting impact of the airplane crash.
