Inhaltsangabe:

Weather contributes to a quarter of all general aviation accidents and nearly 40% of all fatal crashes, according to the AOPA Air Safety Foundation. Yet most pilot programs place little emphasis on understanding and interpreting weather factors.
In this essential guide, you'll learn how to make informed, intelligent decisions about weather that could save lives. Aviation weather awareness instructor Thomas P. Turner breaks down this subject into four sections: weather theory; actual aviation weather hazards; regional weather; and making the "go/no go" decision.
