Hi, I don't understand this pic:

As far as I can judge, both pilots have the weather radar in the Nav-Display.
But what I see is, that on the left side, the radar shows less red marks...how come?

okay, now it has to stop.

Don't you think william is enough of a big boy to plug his pictures by himself ? No ? You have to plug it yourself as well ???

Okay more seriously, William, knowing well the working of the A320 familly cockpit, asked the pilots to show diferent displays on each EFIS (that is a real answer)

Looks to me like it is just an issue of differing map scales, with the Captain's being more "zoomed-in" than the F/O's. If you follow the contour along the leading edge of the Captain's WX display, it looks very similar to that of the F/O's.
