Abstract: A lightning strike to an aircraft causes problems in existing aircraft equipment. To offset the problem, weather equipment can be used, but the weather equipment is prone to noise interference with existing aircraft equipment. By effectively positioning the weather equipment, the present invention solves the noise interference problem. In particular, the process detects an environment event, using weather equipment, on the subject aircraft. Next, the system identifies an origination point of noise, resulting from the detected environment event, in internal aircraft equipment. After identifying the origination point of the noise, the system makes a measurement to determine if the noise is interfering with a signal of the internal aircraft equipment. If interference exists, an operator cancels the noise and adjusts the location of the weather equipment in an external surface of the subject aircraft in such a manner as to provide an interference free environment for the internal aircraft equipment.
