An adaptive radar scanning system for an aircraft includes a radar antenna that is angularly movable to scan across a full scan range. A control system operates the radar antenna to scan in an adjusted scan range based on information related to a heading of the aircraft. As a result, the radar system is able to provide more weather information in the direction of a turn, by truncating the scan range of the radar antenna in the direction away from the turn.
