May 6, 201412 yr My airline requires its use at night over water or with forecast convective activity, and obviously daytime with convective activity or expected TS's enroute. Other than that, most people during the day leave it off when it's severe clear. No one uses the "ground mapping" feature, as the EGPWS terrain display is much more accurate and useful.
