Pilots and dispatchers must learn how to recognize marginal or hazardous weather--and avoid weather that is truly dangerous. The official Aviation Weather Handbook, prepared by the FAA, gives a detailed look at every aspect of weather that pertains to flight safety. It gives the pilot vital tools for flight planning and key information for making inflight weather decisions.
This comprehensive handbook is an essential resource for experienced pilots, flight instructors, and students. It is a reference work that every pilot will want to keep close at hand--and an invaluable help for those preparing for FAA Knowledge Exams and airman certification.
Includes chapters on:
- Heat and temperature
- Water vapor
- Earth-atmosphere heat imbalances
- Atmospheric pressure and altimetry
- Jet streams and wind
- Vertical motion and clouds
- Atmospheric stability
- Precipitation
- Weather radar
- Mountain weather
- Tropical Weather
- Weather and obstructions to visibility
- Turbulence
- Icing
- Thunderstorms
- Forecasts and advisories
- Aviation weather tools
And much, much more!
The Aviation Weather Handbook consolidates information from the following advisory circulars (AC) into one source document. By doing this, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) streamlines access to the FAA's weather documentation. The following AC's are now canceled:
- AC 00-6, Aviation Weather
- AC 00-24, Thunderstorms
- AC 00-30, Clear Air Turbulence Avoidance
- AC 00-45, Aviation Weather Services
- AC 00-54, Pilot Windshear Guide
- AC 00-57, Hazardous Mountain Winds
