This work aims to guide pilots as they interpret and respond to changing weather conditions en route. Covering both VFR and IFR flight and filled with real-life case studies, this guide covers jet stream factors, windshear and more.
Terry Lankford, a certified flight instructor and flight service station specialist, has written this practical guide for pilots who wants to improve their understanding of the weather and how it affects flight operations—without having to learn a great mass of detailed theory, memorize countless formulas, or take up calculus. It covers all the bases, from structure of the atmosphere to how to maneuver to get out of trouble, all in plain English.
