What format is the time displayed on the radar screen?
In the top left corner of the radar screen, the time is displayed in zulu time (also called Coordinated Universal Time or UTC) indicating the time at when the weather overlay was most recently updated. Time’s are displayed in 24 hour format, ie, 2pm is shown as 14:00. In the lower right corner of each aircraft datatag, the Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) for that aircraft is displayed in zulu time. Zulu time, also called Coordinated Universal Time or UTC. Atlanta is 4 hours behind UTC/Zulu time when on daylight savings time, or 5 hours behind when Atlanta is on eastern standard time. Example: 10am in Atlanta = 2pm UTC/Zulu or 14:00 when converted to 24 hour display. Time’s are displayed in 24 hour format to save space (AM or PM not required). To learn more about time conversions, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zulu_time.
